Iittala Birds by Toikka. Brand new, direct from Iittala. Decorative glass objet d’art embodies artistic interpretation of Ruby Bird. Handblown colored crystal glass decorated using special palette and filigree techniques. Designed by renowned Finnish artist Oiva Toikka. Piece carries artist’s signature and comes with collector’s tag in gift box. Glass Ruby Bird measures 9.84 x 5.91 x 6.3 inches. Birds by Toikka are mouthblown objects of art. Like the natural birds they represent, each bird is unique down to the minute detail. This gives every bird its very own distinct personality. Since Toikka’s tiny Flycatchers first took flight in 1972, a new bird has joined the flock every year. Rich cranberry color updates a fan favorite. Originally designed in 1996 both the original Ruby Bird and this stunning rendition are must-haves for any Toikka collector. The new hue lends even more sparkling contrast to the handcrafted specks of iridescent glass. This mirrored-finish is also reflected at the head which is slightly turn in curiosity. It is the careful craftsmanship by the master blowers at iittalas works combined with the imaginative design of Professor Oiva Toikka that gives the iittala glass birds their unmatched beauty and collectability.
