iittala Toikka Magpie

More about iittala Toikka MagpieMouth-blown to perfection, Oiva Toikka’s Magpie is adorned in alternating streaks of black and white that produce an eye-catching design which immediately captures your attention. Slightly larger in size, the oval shaped body is wrapped in glossy black and contrasted by a streak of opaque white across its breast.Atop its elongated neck sits a metallic blue head that is lightly cocked to the side; the Magpie's wings are also decorated in the same hue. Showing a coy alertness, the bird’s large body is balanced by an extra-long black tail. A delicate shape that oozes with confidence and grace, the Magpie is unique addition to Toikka’s collection.

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 Magpie carries the signature “O. Toikka Nuutajärvi” on its base to ensure its authenticity.
