RARE Vintage ittala art glass bird Long Tailed Duck-silver Artist Oiva Toikka
RARE Vintage (1981) iittala Oiva Toikka Silver Long-Tailed Duck; mouth blown art glass. The distinct striped pattern of the Long-Tailed Duck makes it stand out among all other iittala glass birds. The unique “wing twist” makes this duck easily identifiable. The silver stripes make an elegant statement, and may look blue under certain lighting. MEASUREMENTS: 6-3/4″ W x 5″ H (17 x 13 cm). His imaginative, rich and bold glass art deviates from the streamlined aesthetic of Nordic design. The Birds collection is Oiva Toikkas best-known work. Iittala Birds is a unique collection, even in global terms. Every year, Professor Oiva Toikka and the skilled glassblowers assisting him breathed life into yet new species of Iittala Birds. The first birds created by Oiva Toikka and the glassblowers of the Nuutajärvi Glass Factory, the oldest in Finland, saw the light of day in 1972. The first bird was the Flycatcher, appearing in different colour variations. Over 300 species have been created, some of them more enduring in production than others. Each bird is a unique individual, signed with the artists name it is the tangible product of skilled artisanship. The passing of time enhances the value of these art objects. Iittala Birds are cherished and valued gifts and irresistible to collectors around the world, from Finland to the United States and from Central Europe all the way to Japan. I’m not an expert however the condition of this beautiful bird is Very Good to Excellent. No chips, cracks or other flaws that I can see. Natural variations in color and small natural glass blowing bubbles appear on the bird.
