Q & A
A brilliant turquoise blue, the beautiful color of iittala's Toikka Turquoise Blue Shorebird makes a statement with its simplicity. Here, Toikka's interpretation is blown from vivid ultramarine glass with an elegant form that is familiar to Toikka collectors. The head, beak, and tail are made from clear glass which magnifies the turquoise blue that decorate the iittala Toikka Shorebird's beautiful shape. Shorebirds spend much of their time near bodies of water wading while foraging for food perhaps inspiring the striking turquoise blue color of this bird.
It is the careful craftsmanship by the master blowers at iittala's works combined with the imaginative design of Professor Oiva Toikka that gives the iittala glass birds their unmatched beauty and collectability. Each piece is handcrafted, making your bird special and unique. Due to this, there may be slight variations from the pictured bird. Etched "O. TOIKKA IITTALA" at the iittala Toikka Turquoise Blue Shorebird's base.
