Bianco Blu Willow Grouse

More about Bianco Blu Willow GrouseThe Willow Grouse has a milky opaque aside from some speckling across the back - but perhaps its most distinguishing feature is the clear breast and head with translucent red eyes. The bird was designed by artist Tarmo Maaronen and mouth-blown by a small team of skilled blowers. Maaronen was born in 1963 in Urjala, Finland and has been blowing glass since 1979. He worked as a teacher of Scandinavian glass techniques from 1995-1997, until he founded his own glass studio Bianco Blu.
