Iittala Birds by Toikka

Owlet 75x105mm light lilac

Light lilac

The Owlet, designed by Oiva Toikka, have always been the most sympathetic friend in the bird series, but the light lilac version brings out the Owlet's character exceptionally well. The cute owl is a beautiful glass object on its own or as part of a larger flock of birds. The owles are handcrafted by mouth-blowing, so each bird is unique.

The owl makes a great gift as a symbol of wisdom and knowledge. The owl is part of Oiva Toikka's Birds by Toikka collection, which combines the artist's love of nature and glass art. Each glass bird is made by skilled glassblowers in Finland at the Iittala glass factory.

Birds by Toikka

Oiva Toikka (1931-2019) is one of the greatest names in Finnish design. His iconic collection of Birds by Toikka first took flight back in 1972 at the Nuutajärvi glass factory with the creation of his small glass Flycatchers. Since then hundreds of new birds have joined the flock. The collection embodies a rich fusion of glassmaking traditions and would not have been possible without Toikka’s hands-on-approach at the glassworks and his keen understanding of each employee’s skills. Today, each glass bird is handcrafted and mouthblown at the Iittala Glass Factory.

Iittala's designer Oiva Toikka

Oiva Toikka

Oiva Toikka (1931-2019) is one of the great personas of Finnish glass design. His imaginative, rich and bold glass art is a departure from mainstream Nordic design. Toikka’s individual style is also evident in the utility objects he creates as they often deviate from the traditional clean-lined puritanism of Finnish design aesthetics. In addition to glass, his artistic activities cover staging, fashion design and plastic interior design elements.

Toikka has designed a range of home products for Iittala with his Annual Cube, Birds by Toikka, Frutta, Flora, Kastehelmi, Oiva Toikka Collection and Tundra Collections.
