Pertti Santalahti (b. 1941) is a Finnish designer best known for his glasswork at Humppila Glassworks during the 1970s. His designs blend nature-inspired forms with a modern aesthetic, reflecting the experimental spirit of the era. At Humppila, he created sculptural vases and bowls in bold colors and textured glass, often with organic and asymmetrical shapes. Santalahti’s work is now sought after by collectors and represents a significant chapter in postwar Finnish glass design.
