Oiva Toikka’s 2005 annual bird is something to behold. The brilliant-blue Turkey Fowl is a substantial bird yet amazingly conveys a feeling of movement. We love the ruby red beak, the lustre of its head and its stong, glistening blue tail.
Oiva Toikka’s imagination and iittala’s skilled Finnish glassblowers have created magical glass birds for over 30 years. Oiva is inspired by birds found all over the globe, but he makes each creation his own. Some say that the 2005 collection of Birds by Toikka is Oiva’s best work yet.
Measures: 4-3/4" H x 7-1/2" L (19 x 12 cm)
The annual bird is a limited-edition work of art; production is limited to one year. Each bird is a unique piece of artglass, hand-made at iittala's glassworks in Nuutajärvi, Finland. Your bird, along with a 42-page color brochure, will arrive in a handmade wooden birdhouse! Each bird carries Oiva Toikka's signature and the year 2005 on its base.
