Danish design house - 8 iconic brands
FSC_C140259
Kay Bojesen could create original stories made of wood like no other. He could bring the wood to life. Or as he himself put it: 'The line must smile'. And it does so with the greatest precision and care throughout the series of wooden figurines – each one more iconic in Danish design than the other. This unique birthday train, made from FSC® certified oak with details in smoked oak on the wheels and chimney, is no exception. The Kay Bojesen birthday train measures 37 cm in length and is inspired by an original Kay Bojesen train. It is, of course, intended as a decorative item for birthday celebrations, but the train also works perfectly as a true design icon on the shelf, allowing you to enjoy Kay Bojesen's original stories made of wood every day. The locomotive has a small hole in the top for a flag or numbers, and the two attached carriages are adorned with colourful packages, a small guardsman, and a drum – all festive elements from Kay Bojesen's universe created in painted FSC® certified beechwood. With the Kay Bojesen birthday train, you also get the Norwegian flag and numbers from 0 to 9 (2 pcs. of the number 1), which, like the flag, can be placed in several holes in the carriages, allowing you to create exactly the combination you like best. WARNINGS: Not suitable for children under 3 years. Remove all packaging before use. The birthday train is NOT a toy and can ONLY be used for decoration. Make sure not to leave the birthday train unattended.

Kay Bojesen

Wooden figures

The series of wooden figures is based on Kay Bojesen’s basic idea that toys should be simple, solid and inspire play. Kay Bojesen also worked based on the philosophy that wood only comes to life when it gets a story – a philosophy that was consistent with all his figures. That foundation and Kay Bojesen’s unique talent has turned his magical world of Wooden FIgures into beloved classics and design icons that will last for decades to come.

Kay Bojesen is one of the big Danish designers. He was able to turn wood into original stories like no other. He had a knack for bringing the wood to life. Or as he put it: “Making the line smile”. And the lines certainly smile in each of the Wooden Animals – which have all become iconic.
