Toikka bird Blue Magpie Seville orange

Design: Oiva Toikka

Blue Magpie in Seville Orange is a bold and energetic bird from the Iittala Birds by Toikka collection, perfectly reflecting the imaginative world of designer Oiva Toikka. The combination of deep blue and orange accents creates a bold color contrast that makes it an unmissable solitaire in any interior.

Each piece is hand-blown in the Finnish Iittala glassworks, where experienced glassmakers shape the glass into a unique shape. The color transitions – especially in the head and body area – occur naturally during the processing process, making each bird original with its own expression and subtly different details. Blue Magpie looks more like a glass sculpture than a decoration, and brings playfulness, color and a strong design character to the space. It also works great as a collector's item or a unique gift.

The Birds by Toikka collection began in 1972, when Finnish designer Oiva Toikka created the first series of glass birds at the Nuutajärvi glassworks. Since then, hundreds of different designs have been created and the collection has become an icon of Finnish design around the world. Each bird is original – created by hand and reflecting both Toikko's boundless imagination and the mastery of the glassmakers who bring his designs to life.
