Nanny Still (1926–2009) was a pioneering Finnish designer best known for her glasswork at Riihimäen Lasi. She joined the glassworks in 1949 after winning a design competition and worked there into the 1970s. Still created both art glass and functional pieces, known for her innovative shapes and vibrant colors. Her series such as Harlekiini and Graphica demonstrate her talent for combining utility with artistic expression. A key figure in Finnish modernism, she was one of the few women of her era to gain international recognition for her work in glass design.
