The name Cucunor is a made up name derived by a popular Finnish poem titled Kukunor ja Kalahari. The poem, which some have described as nonsense, features whimsical fantasy and playful rhymes. Toikka is able to capture that fantasy with this set of the 2008 Cucunor Bird and Egg. Both pieces are a magnificent display of color in soft pastels - almost a watercolor appearance. A great way for you to start a collection or a must-have for the serious collector.
