Oliva Toikka's birds are more than a collection of artifacts, they are a collection of stories. The shape of some are inspired by nature, others originate in the mind of the artist. Each has its own character and tells a different story. Finding the character and expressing it in glass is the heart of the idea behind the Birds collection. Limitless imagination combined with a sophisticated knowledge of glass allow Toikka and his glass blowers to create small miracles of life.
