Toucan Song

This little toucan has his beak open wide to sing his greetings to you. Artisan Elena Herrera of Costa Rica handcrafts this blown glass figurine and adds colorful details with glass paint. This lovely little toucan has blue feet, traditional black and yellow plumage, and swirls of green, red, yellow, and blue on his beak.

The very nature of hand-blown glass artistry implies the possibility of miniscule air bubbles and/or slight imperfections. This is part of the charm of this art form, for it ensures that no two pieces will ever be identical.
