No chips, cracks, or damage. Note image #4 – there seems to be a rough spot on the tip of the tail. It does not look like a chip but rather something that happened during creation. Sand, soda, lime and fire. In the heart of the hot shop, in a fiery kiln, elements melt to create red-hot glass mass. A skilled hand grabs a pipe, lifts a gather of glass out of the oven, and starts working on it: calmly, phase by phase. Twirl, lift, blow – a small miracle takes place: the unique idea of an artist appears in the mass. At the Iittala glass factory in Nuutajarvi, a millenia-old tradition of glassmaking is strongly alive. This is the birthplace of Iittala’s jewels – the glass birds. Dimensions – approx 6″ x 5″. Mouth Blown – each is unique. The item “Iittala Oiva Toikka Female Pine Grosbeak Glass Bird” is in sale since Sunday, February 11, 2018.
