Design: Oiva Toikka
Iconic glass owl Owlet in a soft light purple shade from the Iittala Birds by Toikka collection. Thanks to its delicate color and typical round shape, Owlet looks exceptionally sweet and playful, yet retains the elegance typical of Finnish glass design. Each piece is created using the traditional hand-blown glass technique, which is why each owl is an original with its own expression and slight differences. It will stand out beautifully on its own or as part of a larger collection of glass birds. Packaged in a gift box.
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 – it is created by hand and reflects not only Toikka's creativity, but also the mastery of individual glassmakers. Owls are among the most popular motifs in the entire collection and, thanks to their limited production, they also have a significant collector's value.
