The design was inspired by a spotting of the small warbler at the site of this year's FinnFest in Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
Formerly named the Blue Yellow-backed Warbler, Toikka's impeccable interpretation of the sweet songbird captures these dreamy colors with finesse. A heavenly blue tail fades effortlessly into creamy white wings, and a warm golden breast boasts as the prominent feature of the piece. A straight beak and rounded head stay true to its living counterpart's curious and playful pose. With only 250 produced, each mouth-blown piece will be hand-etched with a "FinnFest 2013 O. Toikka Nuutajärvi" signature to remind you of its special origin and authenticity.
When natural light falls upon the glass of this piece, it will remind you of this bird soaring through the blue skies and feeling the summer sun's warm golden rays. Whether displayed on its own or added to an existing collection, the breathtaking beauty of Toikka’s Northern Parula FinnFest 2013 Bird will bring joy to its admirers.
