More about iittala Toikka Black IbisCaptivate your guests with the striking Toikka Black Ibis from iittala. Finnish designer Oiva Toikka is known for creating lovely glass birds but the Black Ibis is one of his most beautiful creations yet. Unbelievably smooth like a polished piece of onyx, the entire body of this bird gleams in an inky black tone.Its two-toned head slowly fades from black into a creamy white color at the face to give the bird a lifelike quality. Its long iridescent sliver-blue beak bows from its head to rest in a graceful final pose. Supported by a strong pedestal base, this bird will make an impact in any space as it bewitches admirers with its bold presence.

The 2011 collection of birds by Oiva Toikka are individually mouth-blown by the master glassblowers at iittala’s glassworks in Nuutajärvi, Finland. Each handcrafted iittala Toikka Black Ibis carries the signature “O. Toikka Nuutajärvi” on its base to ensure its authenticity.
