I love how someone on ST: Enterprise set crew loved Finnish glass design. (lemmy.world)

Shran uses a set from a Finnish designer, called "Ultima Thule". It's also featured as a world on the show, iirc. (I'm midway through rewatch, but Ultima Thule is definitely a world in the ST universe.)

The name come from ancient times, meaning roughly "Ultimate North", and referring to various places that no-one can really agree on.

Anyways, the other glass is also Finnish, and also used in ST: Enterprise. Whenever Archer has dinner in his quarters or they're having cake at Malcolm's bday, therr these glasses are: https://star-trek.design/glassware/tapio-goblets-by-tapio-wirkkala-for-iittala

(I wonder if this is related to my alcoholism flaring up anytime the episodes with the glasses come up.)

It's with one "P", but I like the enthusiasism. I'm sure I wrote that wrong. I don't care.
