Picnic

Design Bertil Vallien · 1967
Picnic was an immediate success when the series originally launched in the radical 1960s . Contempt prevailed for the bourgeois demand for large tableware sets ; people preferred to drink straight from the bottle or from simple drinking glasses .
“ I made Picnic to be a simple glass , with no stem or foot in the usual sense . The shape and concept result in a refined glass . The stout stem holds liquid all the way to the foot , giving the entire glass the color of the drink to hold onto . That makes the glass feel more festive than an ordinary drinking glass , and it also works well for serving milk on an ordinary Tuesday . With its spout , the carafe has a small curl that creates a birdlike appearance , lending it personality and character . The series feels highly relevant once again , and it is time now for a new generation to experience and delight in the line that was in so many homes in the late 60s . Back to basics .” – Bertil Vallien .
