| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a large, sweeping leaf form rendered in deeply textured, flowing relief, its veined surface filling the left and lower portions of the field in a bold, sculptural composition inspired by Tapio Wirkkala's celebrated Kantarelli glassware and leaf-motif designs. To the upper right, a small bird perches or pecks at the leaf tip, referencing the naturalistic motifs central to Wirkkala's artistic legacy. The legend TAPIO WIRKKALA arcs along the upper rim in incuse lettering. The contrasting surface treatments — polished field against the striated leaf texture — lend the design a pronounced visual depth. |
