Iittala Oiva Toikka Birds by Toikka "Ladybird" - 50th Anniversary Limited Edition (Only 1000 Made Worldwide)

Up for sale is a breathtakingly majestic and rare glass art masterpiece, "Ladybird," designed by the legendary Oiva Toikka for Iittala. This monumental bird was released in 2010 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Oiva Toikka's brilliant design career and was strictly limited to only 1000 pieces worldwide.

This particular individual is a true collector's prize, featuring a highly coveted 2-digit limited serial number. It showcases an exceptionally beautiful silhouette: a rounded head with a gorgeous transparent gradient transitioning into a shiny black body adorned with lustrous gold metallic spots. This distinct gradient opacity is a spectacular characteristic predominantly observed only in the earliest production runs of this model.
