Hand Blowen iittala Toikka White Kuulas
Still in original box. The iittala Toikka Kuulaas is a larger version of the popular Puffball birds. With an endearing plump body and playful appearance, the Kuulas has quickly become an fan favorite. Blown from white-colored glass, its paddle shaped tail and teardrop head are made from clear glass to provide a striking contrast against the body. Finnish for “transparent”, the Kuulas bird uses a simplistic color palette to allow the bird’s adorable form to take center stage. The older sister of the popular Puffball birds, the White Kuulas is slightly larger but still retains the endearing plump body that iittala fans adore. 5-1/4″ L x 3″ W x 3H (13 x 7.5 x 7.5 cm). This glass bird is no longer in production.

An item that has been used previously. Used, Vintage Hand Blown Vase Soliflore Model “Karaphi” Blue Glass Signed by Timo Sarpaneva, Iittala Manufacture Finland 1958. One of postwar Finland’s most celebrated designers, Timo Sarpaneva was born to a family of blacksmiths and textiles artists in Helsinki in 1926. He studied graphic design and drafting at the Taideteollinen Korkeakoulu (now known as the Aalto University School of Arts, Design & Architecture) between 1941 and’48. In 1949, he won a prize in glass design from Riihimäki Glassworks, and the following year Karhula-Iittala hired him as a designer and exhibition programmer. Sarpaneva’s designs for Iittala earned both the man and the company international acclaim, particularly through presentations at the Triennale di Milano in the 1950s. Inspired by modernist principles of reduction and experimentation, Sarpaneva pioneered a number of new techniques and forms in glass design. Width: Approx 2.6.
