NOTICE: the price is for four glasses or six glasses
Tapio handmade glass series was designed by Tapio Wirkkala in 1956.
The series includes many different glasses for different purposes.
Tapio glasses were mouthblown into molds. The glasses were completed by using a wooden stick: that bubble inside the leg was made by using the stick in certain technique.
The official model number is Iittala 2101.
It seems that someTapio glasses are still produced after six decades; they can be seen for sale order in some Finnish webstores for prices 30-37 euros a glass.
Even Tapio series has been produced for decades it is not common or cheap - probably because of fine but slow manufacturing process.

SET A including four shot glasses in an original package is perfect (3.–4. pictures). I found no marks of usage. Few very tiny bubbles may be found. Old horizontal white texted Iittala stickers are excellent. The box is a little worn with one little hole on the cover.
SET B is in almost excellent condition with four Tapio shot glasses (5.-6. pictures). Two glasses are excellent with no visible bubbles or marks of usage. The rest two glasses have few slight scratches, which can be noticed if you look them against the light. Very old triangle shaped Iittala stickers are mostly in excellent vintage condition. No box.
SET C includes four Tapio glasses (7.-8. pictures). The glasses are in almost excellent condition with only minimal marks of usage. The stickers are only partly remaining.
SET D includes six glasses without stickers (9.-10. pictures). This set is in excellent vintage condition. On some glasses can be seen slight and tiny marks (scratches) of usage. The stickers are missing. NOTICE: the price is for six glasses as other sets include four glasses.
