Sky Curlew might be Toikka's ultimate expression of the lightness of birds. Its shape--long thin beak to its extended narrow tail--and its colors--silvery lustre on soft baby blue--create a bird which seems as light as the sky itself.

Beautiful Blue

The blue Key Curlew looks beautiful on my mantle, resting there with five other Iittala relatives. Now that I have six altogether I can arrange them in pairs - they look like they are having a conversation. I was a little worried about the splash of color on the sides of Sky Curlew - it looked orange which was not a color I was interested in having. Turns out the color is more like gunmetal or pewter and fits right in with the tall candlesticks that flank my little flock of birds.
