New Iittala Toikka Summer Finch Glass Bird
New Limited Edition iittala Toikka Summer Finch Glass Bird
Oiva Toikka has graced us with color as iittala has released his latest creation, the Summer Finch glass bird. It’s a limited edition bird with a production run of this summer only. It’s by far the most colorful of the 2009 iittala Toikka birds as Oiva has incorporated iittala’s recent passion for the apple green hue (see Apple Green Aalto Vases post). The Summer Finch’s translucent apple green body with tiny air bubbles trapped inside, adds some visual texture to the bird as it refracts light. Another unique piece about this bird is its colorful tail. The rose-olive tail will appear a rose color in natural light and olive green under artificial/fluorescent light. Simply put, the Summer Finch is visually stunning.
