iittala Toikka purchase
April 20, 2015
I recently bought an iittala Toikka blown glass piece (Scarlet Tanager (Fallingwater Red) and had a very good experience doing so. I bought it on line and it was easy to do, there was a good description of the item as well as a good photo, it was a good price, and it was shipped promptly. It looks great along with other blown glass pieces on my wall. I am very satisfied with the product and the whole process.
Pros

Finnish Art Glass at its Best

It is nice to know that in this world of mass production there are still artisans dedicated to the art of glass blowing. Photos really can't do this bird justice. The attention to detail is amazing.
Pros
Excellent value. Made in Finland (and not China!).

I was heart broken until I took the ooportunity offered by FinnStyle to buy two for the price of one. I tooki the offer and I will enjoy this beauty for many more years.

Gorgeous design and a bargain price for a Toikka bird! I was a little worried about it being damaged in the shipping, but it arrived safely in one piece, fragile beak and all!

Hello,
"The Fallingwater Red is made in a limited edition of only 2,500. A portion of the sales price supports the restoration and upkeep of Frank Lloyd Wright's masterwork, Fallingwater."
So this is a limited edition bird not an annual and they were released in 2004
Yes, the design is the same on both sides of the bird (keeping in mind that each bird is hand-blown so it will not be perfectly symmetrical and each bird will vary)
