Made especially for the Museum of Glass, the Violet Green Swallow is an evergreen addition to any Toikka collection. Only 300 of these special edition birds have been made in Finland by iittala, and each is numbered x/300 on its base. Because every bird is handmade and mouth-blown, each is a one-of-a-kind work of art.

All will share a transparent emerald green body and beautiful iridescent beak.
