2008 edition birds designed by oiva toikka - one of the great names of finnish design.
toikka’s birds are cherished by collectors all over the world who enjoy these art objects as simple reminders of the poetry in everyday life.
toikka’s birds are all very independent creations and inhabit their own world.
these lyrical creatures are a feat of craftsmanship – each bird is mouth blown and is as diverse and individual as those who collect them. iittala birds are gifts that keep on giving, destined to find the right owner.
toikka’s visions are still brought to life by craftsmen at the nuutajärvi factory in finland where the iittala glass workshops have always been. glassblowers work in teams of up to five to create one single bird. all the glass materials are melted in a furnace at 1400° celsius. the melting process alone takes approximately 15 hours.
each bird is signed “o. toikka nuutajärvi” as a proof of authenticity.
please see individual items below for dimensions, and other specifications unique to each item.
