More about iittala Toikka Heron Designed by renowned Finnish artist Oiva Toikka, the elegant, stoic Heron is a water-bird lover’s icon. The texture of this bird is like sea glass, its colors like beach stones and sea shells. The heron stands confidently and at peace, strong and tall and elegant. The mottled browns of its chest are handsomely complimentary to the blues of its head and wings. Standing apart from other birds of Toikka’s glass-blown creations, the Heron is truly a unique and elegant piece of art. If you look closely at the base of the bird, you can see the signature of Oiva Toikka and of his studio in Nuutajärvi, Finland.
