The transparent glass of this Vigna bird allows for the full appreciation of its expert craftsmanship. Vigna’s Colori birds are comprised of two tear drop shapes in opposing directions; together, they comprise the head and the body of this minimalist bird. The abstract shape of the Colori is expertly polished and the translucent body is hollowed out in the center to allow a unique play light. This effect is heightened in the clear rendition, making it one extraordinary piece of art.
Each Vigna bird is individually handcrafted by master glassblowers at iittala’s renowned glassworks in Nuutajärvi, Finland. The time-intensive process of forming, cutting, and polishing each bird showcases the skill of these craftsmen.
