De legendarische productontwerper Alfredo Häberli ontwierp de Essence-collectie om het aanbod van drinkglazen te beperken tot eenvoud en functionaliteit. Essence-glazen hebben allemaal dezelfde steel en voet om de veelzijdigheid, de balans en de functie te optimaliseren. De kelk is echter uniek en zorgvuldig ontworpen om de zintuigen aan te spreken en optimaal te genieten van de drank. Het resultaat is modern en minimalistisch Fins glaswerk met een eigenzinnig karakter, dat een van de meest geprezen glasserviezen ter wereld is. De Essence-wittewijnglazen, in een set van vier, zijn met hun zeldzaam dunne rand en lange, delicate steel een streling voor de zintuigen.

Artek's Armchair 400, also known as Tank, is one of the absolute milestones in furniture design of the 1900s. Alvar Aalto designed the Tank chair in 1936 for the Milan Triennale. The voluminous chair attracted much attention and was awarded during the fair. Armchair 400 was an exception compared to Aalto’s previous pieces of furniture both for its shape and for its premises: previously had Aalto designed all his chairs for a certain architecture destination, but the Tank was designed as commission work for the Triennale. The sturdy seat and the wide armrests offer a comfortable seating experience and give the chair its characteristic, tank-like appearance. The lightness seen in Aalto’s first chairs had now changed into a more massive look and the barycentre had become lower, but the appearance is still airy and organic. Armchair 400 is available in several upholstery options: Fanny Aronsen’s fabrics bring a new shade to this timeless classic.
