Designed by Heikki Orvola in 1988, I believe IITTALA's wildly popular Marimekko KIVI glass votives have been in ongoing production since then, with little wonder. These thick, heavy and seemingly simple blown glass cylindrical votives (2.25" tall, 2.50" in diameter) absolutely explode in color when exposed to the light. From a distance, they look like a fairly deep cranberry/red, but as you can see by the photos, in direct light, they explode into a stunning amberina rich in oranges, reds, yellows--remnicent of a dazzling sunset. After a bit of research, I feel comfortable that this color is officially RED (not cranberry) -- a highly coveted color that's no longer in production.

Our votives are in fine shape, with only the slightest bit of base wear but no damage of note. No labels, but the "Marimekko" is imprinted on the base of both votives.

DIMENSIONS: 2.25" tall x 2.50" in diameter
CONDITION: Excellent, light base wear

Frequently Asked Questions

Custom and personalized orders

GLASSpheme loves custom orders! But how do we 'customize' vintage glass? Simple. We love glass and we love our customers--and there are many ways we can help!

1) Volume discounts: Let's say there are several pieces you MUST have. Let me know, and I'll send you our very best price for the lot.

2) Custom displays: Say you have a special place in your home that SCREAMS for a glass display. Send me a photo of the space, your budget, and the accent colors for your room, and we'll send you photographs of possible groupings and our special pricing for the lot.

3) Tell us what groupings you have in mind, and we'll photograph them together for you so you can see how they'll look together.

Gift wrapping and packaging

What could be better than giving a gorgeous piece of vintage glass as a gift? (Aside from getting one, that is.) Glass is beautiful and functional--mostly! Consider a super mod biomorphic bowl or cased glass jar for a vanity or dresser, a platter/centerpiece for fruit on a countertop, or a vase for cut flowers. Not only does vintage glass bring exquisite delight to the most mundane of household functions (you should see our soap dishes), but our beauties increase in value over time. Send us a note telling us your purchase is a gift, and we will send it along with your personalized gift card, colorful tissue paper and a bow. (You alone will receive the receipt by email.)

Can I Select Custom Arrival Dates?

GLASSpheme ships your purchase on the very next business day, but we're flexible too! If you're going away on vacation or have a special date you'd like your gift to arrive, send us a note, and we'll time our shipping for you!

How can I get coupons for your shop and be informed of sales?

Simple! Join the GLASSpheme mailing list! Paste this link in your browser, send us your email address, and VOILA--you'll be among the first to know when your favorite piece of glass is on sale, or when we're offering coupons.
