Classic Timo Sarpaneva round bird bottle from Finland. Hand blown thin glass. Lintupullo is a Finnish name for the Bird bottle. Designed by Timo Sarpaneva in 1956 and manufactured in Iittala Glass Factory until 1968. Color is deep purple. When the bottle has water inside it reacts with light and the texture and reflections come absolutely stunning. Almost like floating shape of liquid. I have owned many bird bottles. The problem with these is finding ones without grayness (water stains). Sometimes luckily they are cleanable and sometimes it’s already in a state of glass sickness. Yes there might be small normal signs of use but the bottle is free from grayness and has wonderful deep purple color. Signed “Timo Sarpaneva 2501″. Stands approx 16.5 cm tall.
