Q & A
Oiva Toikka’s 2004 Glass Birds are comprised of birds both small and large, all demanding equal attention that his glass blown creations deserve. From his Barnacle Goose, standing at over 12” tall, to his collection of Fly Catchers and Goldencrests at just under 3”, 2004 was a year of confident experimentation in celebration of his craft.Small miracles. Mankind’s stubborn joy in artistic expression will always find a way, and a material. Yet we must confess to our admiration for Oiva Toikka, who over the last 30 years has created a wonderful collection of Glass Birds.
His apparently limitless imagination, combined with a sophisticated knowledge of glass, has made it possible for him and his glass-blowers to create small miracles of life, sought after by collectors all over the world. Birds are individually handmade which makes each bird unique.
