Colors are hard to describe: green with tan accents but it looks more like a metallic blue from afar. His tail is long and straight, large wings are a blue/green color, head is red/brown, and his beak is a golden brown.
A very large bird: height is 7 inches and length is about 12 inches. Mr. Wood Grouse or Capercaillie is a very special species indeed. Mouth blown in Finland.
Note: the Capercaillie has some embedded air bubbles at the wings.
All of the Toikka birds are highly collected, individually made, mouth-blown pieces of art. Each bird is handmade at iittala’s famous glassworks in Nuutajärvi, Finland. These birds are great gifts for bird-lovers and those who appreciate mouth-blown glass art.
