For nearly two decades, Pale Male has called New York Citys Central Park home. The red-tailed hawk was the first of its kind to take residence there and he has intrigued New Yorkers ever since. Now, Oiva Toikka has created a limited edition tribute to the famous hawk. Adored by many, Pale Male was named for his unusually light coloring.

This beautiful mouth-blown bird features an expansive ivory body intricately marbled with a stunning red tail and brilliant metallic beak. Standing approximately 8 tall and 14 long, this nearly life-size statue is an amazing tribute to the bird that has inspired so many. The image just doesnt do this bird justice; youll be astounded by its true beauty and splendor.

Oiva Toikkas imagination and iittalas skilled Finnish glassblowers have created magical glass birds for over 30 years. Oiva is inspired by birds found all over the globe, but he makes each creation his own.

For every Pale Male purchased in 2007 iittala, Inc. will make a donation to the New York City Audubon Society. Each Pale Male has a special hang tag acknowledging the co-operation between iittala, Inc and New York City Audubon.
