Q & A
As usual, the imaginative and artistic mind of Oiva Toikka is embodied through the Annual 2024 Alder Trush. The white, milky opal glass of the Alder Trush is decorated with incredible blue, green and brown flecks that represent its unique feathering. Carried all the way up its body to the bird's slightly turned head, a vibrant royal blue colors its head and beak for an eye-catching pop.
This limited-edition design is only in production for one year, making the iittala Toikka Alder Trush 2024 Annual Bird a special piece to add to a glass bird collection. Whether you collect the annual bird each year or are looking to start a new tradition, the breathtakingly beautiful iittala annual bird will forever be a piece to be treasured. "O. Toikka IITTALA 2024" is etched at its base to ensure authenticity and remind generations to come when this special bird was hatched. Oiva Toikka's collectible glass birds are individually mouth-blown in Finland by iittala's master glassblowers, meaning each Alder Trush is unique and may vary slightly from the original image.

This bird is large, beautiful and very different from the others that I have collected over years. Its multi bright colors - especially the blue - really stand out whether or not the bird sits in a window or under a light - the head is especially beautiful. Its textured body also is unusual and enhances the bird. Highly recommend.
