The Iittala Birds collection was created by Oiva Toikka, an internationally renowned artist and one of the greatest names in Finnish glass. His imagination and Iittala’s skilled Finnish glassblowers have created these magical glass birds for over 30 years. All of the Toikka birds are highly collectable, individually made, mouth-blown pieces of art.
The lustrous surface colour of the bird has been produced by using chrome green alongside elegant Sevilla orange as the form is being blown. The traces on the surface left by the spiked mould resemble small feathers.
Each Grass Eider Bird is handmade at Iittala’s famous glassworks in Nuutajärvi, Finland and carries “O. Toikka Nuutajärvi” mark ensuring authenticity. The size may vary.
