The Birds by Toikka collection intertwines Oiva Toikka's (1939-2019) profound love for nature with his passion for glass art. The collection combines traditional glassmaking techniques with Toikka's hands-on approach, honed through his close collaboration with skilled artisans, especially during his time at the Nuutajärvi Glassworks. Often found in the hot shop, working alongside master glassblowers, Toikka drew inspiration from his iconic pop-inspired vases of the era to create Kiikkuri, the first technically demanding large bird in his repertoire. Kiikkuri, based on the archival bird shape, now emerges in beautiful new colours that add to its allure. Limited to 1000 numbered pieces, each bird in this collection becomes a treasured and cherished gift.
