Even though I have no idea who the maker of this Bird is, I'm happy with it, as it is well crafted and Green. I'd like to know who the maker is, if the legion vast has any ideas.
6" Beak to Tail,
4 1/4" Tall,
3 1/2" Wide.
Thanks for stopping by.
No idea, but green and blue together is a favourite of mine!
Beautiful......I'd be happy with it too!
Have you had a look at... Oiva Toikka glass birds..he did birds similar to yours!...:-)
So it is not marked ??? Could we see a bottom shot ???
BIANCO BLU OY FINLAND LASILINTU is a possibility. I have one posted here on CW.
Thank you Racer Karen, I'm glad you like it. Thanks.
Thanks Sklo42. I'd never seen one in this style, this big. Thanks.
Vetraio50, no label or marking on my piece. I saw the BIANCO you posted, it is very nice. BTW, how big is your bird? I posted a bottom shot of mine.
Thanks DEANO .... they are similar, no ???
Mine is 10 cm long .... Beak to tail.
But the finish on the bottom is different. That method of finish on yours is similar to the early Toikka Sieppot birds. But the Toikkas are normally signed.
The base of the Toikka Sieppo is cut in this same manner but the base is polished and then the signature engraved.
Thanks for taking a look at it. Do you think this makes it a replica, albeit a quality piece?
I would think so at this stage. I can take some pics of the little Sieppo if you'd lik.
Thanks for your help on this one. I don't think I need to see any other photos. Thank you sir, I appreciate.
yes, it reminds me of a * Vintage Oiva Toikka Whip-Poor-Will Iittala * bird....not signed anywhere??
Thanks Rose, double checked for a sig and found none. Maybe someday I'll get some idea of what it is, until then, into the display case until further notice. lol. Thanks for checking in.
What a beauty. Happy New Year Deano
