Q & A
The fun-loving kid sister of traditional Toikka birds, the iittala Puffball is smaller in stature but don’t let that fool you because this bird packs a load of personality. Like its name suggests, the Puffball is a small, round bird that could fit in the palm of your hand. It’s perfectly plump body and slightly turned up beak give it a perky persona that's hard to resist.
A ball of fun, the Puffball is a two-toned yellow in color. Its head and tail tip are made from tinted translucent glass which sparkles in the light and provides a beautiful contrast against the bird’s opaque body. A lovely lemon yellow, this puffball uses its sunny coloring to enhance its happy-go-lucky nature.An adorable addition to the Toikka bird repertoire, this pleasantly plump bird will brighten the mood of anyone who looks its direction. A darling display piece by itself or start a wonderful investment and collect the whole Puffball flock.The 2010 collection of birds by Oiva Toikka are individually mouth-blown by the master glassblowers at iittala’s glassworks in Nuutajärvi, Finland. Each handcrafted iittala Toikka Yellow Puffball carries the signature “O. Toikka Nuutajärvi” on its base to ensure its authenticity.
