Spectacular Large Jeweled Kiwi Glass Egg by Renowned Finnish Artist Oiva Toikka

A beautiful and unusual 2 pound art glass egg. This jeweled Kiwi glass egg was made from thick walled crystal with small hollow center. It was blown by hand in cased colors of blues, reds and metallic silver.

It’s a big egg, nearly as big as its mother, the fabulous jewelled Kiwi bird. Comes in it’s own travel crate complete with nest and peek hole. Signed by the master Oiva Toikka for Iittala, Finland. Also numbered limited edition, this example is 438 of 750. Toikka gave the Kiwi bird and its egg a 3-dimensional effect with layers of colors in and on milky white encased in crystal. A booklet is included with 38 pages of full-color images of ‘Birds by Toikka’. This item is new and fresh from Iittala, Finland.

This jeweled Kiwi glass egg measures 5″ tall, 4″ wide, with the widest girth at 12″. It weighs 2 lbs.[color-box]More About Scandinavian Glass[/color-box]
