Sculpturally executed in thick and heavy textured glass. Helena Tynell designed many classics for Finland's Riihimäen Lasi glassworks, the most well-known of which being 'Aurinkopullo' (meaning 'sun bottle') from 1964. The series of vases was produced from 1964 until 1974 and was available in four sizes, as well as in a variety of colors. Its iconic sun relief and geometric appearance make this piece a whimsical addition to any space.
