The Grey Whooper Swan is one of the largest in the Toikka collection. Along with the White Whooper Swan, this bird is the showpiece of Toikka’s 2007 collection of glass birds. A long graceful neck and body are adorned with a soft grey plumage which represents that of the cygnet (baby swan).The Grey Whooper Swan joins dozens of other collectible glass birds produced by a handful of skilled glassblowers in the small Finnish town of Nuutajärvi. Oiva Toikka has worked with these glassblowers for over 30 years to produce the little gems we call Toikka birds. Each bird is mouth blown and hand formed, without moulds. So no two birds are exactly alike. Each is a little Finnish masterpiece available to collectors worldwide.
