iittala Toikka Ruby Red Bird

I love this Ruby Red Bird! I smile every time I see it, which is always since it sits prominently in my living room with a smaller Toikka Red Bird. A perfect 44th Anniversary gift!!

Nicest of all Toikkas with a beautifull red color can be place anywere

My mother is from Finland and she always brought a Toikka bird as a hostess gift. I continued the tradition when I gave this Ruby Red Bird bird to my in-laws when they hosted Christmas dinner. I chose red because of the season and the warmth the color emanated. The Toikka bird is just the right size, not too bigto be garish, not to small to disappear in a room full of Christmas knick-knacks. The superior craftsmanship is immediately evident. Perhaps next year I will add to the tradition by giving a bird to myself!
