The Little Barn Owl - iittala - Oiva Toikka 1973 - Birds by Toikka Collection 2007

Credit to Oiva Toikka for such beautiful masterpieces, mouth-blown glass done to perfection. Each so handsomely made, unique, timeless and a privilege to own.

Quote from iitala 'Oiva Toikka's boundless inspiration and imagination find expression in his glass birds. Toikka's birds are handmade in Nuutajarvi, a glass-making village in Finland that is over two hundred years old. The creation of the birds demands great technical and artistic insight from the glassblowers. Each and every one is unique, featuring its own distinctive color variations. The collection is renewed annually.'
