Torogoz Looking Backwards - Handmade Glass Art Figure of Bird


The VitroNAUTRA Collection celebrates El Salvador’s wildlife, and as El Salvador’s national bird the Torogoz naturally takes center stage in this series. This work fuses glass of various tones to exemplify the bird’s natural beauty. Mounted with treated iron on a wooden base of certified cured pine, this exclusive decorative piece will light up your home or office.


El Salvador’s flora and fauna are the focus of Margarita Llort’s VitroNATURA collection, highlighting through intense colors and mystifying textures the features of El Salvador´s vivid wildlife. Margarita Llort’s pieces elegantly capture the often forgotten natural landscape of the unexpectedly diverse Central American country.


Help protect El Salvador´s biodiversity. When you purchase a piece from the VitroNATURA collection 25% of the proceeds go to SalvaNATURA Fundacion Ecologica, a not-for-profit organization devoted to preserving El Salvador´s natural habitat and animal diversity. Additionally, Vitrales de El Salvador recycles and upcycles whenever possible, implementing a “Zero Waste” approach to production. All of the left-over glass from large projects is creatively used in new items. Every purchase is kind to our planet!
