      Very cool piece. It was my sister's birthday today..so I spent two hours looking around a local antique store yesterday. Finally found a Kanawha blue glass squirrel and a Pilgrim Glass squirrel for her.

      Phil thank you for your wonderful comment, I am happy to add this lavender bird to my other animals, the kiwi is such an interesting flightless bird & their bodies are so cute

      Dave you're a really great brother, the squirrels by both Kanawha and Pilgrim are so pretty and the blue glass Kanawha made was beautiful like an ocean blue. You will like an animal by them in a different color I've recently found & will post soon. Thank you for your awesome comment

      Scott I'm so glad you loved this little kiwi, I had posted another bigger kiwi in a speckled green version but this lil guy was so special in his rare neo lavender blue that I had to get him. Thanks so much for your super comment

      At first I thought he was an elephant! He's great Jenni, I now see the long beak and the little ball body he has! Perfectly made and formed because kiwis do have a ball of a body on really spindly legs!

      i love this , reminds me of a Rocky kiwi 'Kalliokiwi',don,t get confused by the low emmission price (was peanuts i thought 210 euro,) and adjust it by alot and NOT just a few hundreds believe me

      very well done congrats

      Lauren thank you for your wonderful comment & love for this kiwi, I too love the ball body & base he's a cutie, and because he's native to New Zealand I give this co top marks for their design

      apostata I'm so happy you liked this kiwi bird, it does have a style very similar to the Rocky Kiwi Kalliokiwi done by Oiva Toikka, great comparison! Thank you for your awesome comment & enjoying this little fellow
