This bird was designed by Oiva Toikka for the Insurance company Teollisuusvakuutus in 1990 to celebrate their 100th Anniversary 1890-1990. A lustered Anniversary bird from the good old times.
This bird was hand made in legendary Nuutajärvi glass factory in Finland.
This one is dark blue-green with a lot of luster and a nice filigree pattern. The head is of clear blue glass, that is only slightly lustered, so the blue shows nicely when light hits it. The beak is orange.
On the last picture you are able to compare this bird with other birds of the same species, and discover how each bird has its own individual features.
