A smiley beak for 70 years. With its brightly colored beak and friendly expression, the puffin is a bird you love at first sight. It's almost too cute to be true, and it's easy to understand why Kay Bojesen was inspired by the charming bird from the cold north when he created his famous and beloved Puffin back in 1954. Of course, the 70th anniversary should be properly celebrated with an anniversary edition produced only in 2024 and a new mini-size that is even more charming, if possible. The little Puffin is 5.3" tall and is made from FSC-certified beech wood, which has been painted with great precision and care to give the body, beak and eyes the authentic, fine and friendly look for which the Puffin is known. It was theater painter Svend Rasmussen who stood behind the bird's fine colors and wonderful beak which, along with his naive, minimalist lines, perfectly match Kay Bojesen's playful, imaginative world. Regardless of its size, the Puffin has a very special appeal to both children and adults and is a great gift idea for christenings, birthdays, graduation gifts, anniversaries or weddings.

One of his greatest classics is undoubtedly the songbird. And even though the songbird in this keychain edition has been scaled down to just 4.5 cm in height, it still carries a rich legacy of Kay Bojesen’s design heritage wherever you go. Kay Bojesen crafted his first wooden figurine in 1922, and ten years later, he opened a shop and workshop on Bredgade in Copenhagen.

Let the adventure live on through original wooden stories. In 2021, when the H.C. Andersens Hus museum opened in Odense, the museum and Kay Bojesen Denmark began a collaboration, to make it now possible to find some of the most famous and loved figures from the world-famous fairy tales interpreted in Kay Bojesen's universe of original stories in wood. The Nightengale, The Shepherdess and the Chimney Sweep and The Sandman were the first to move onto the shelves of the museum store in Odense—and of course also of your local design store. The Little Match Girl has also found her way into the warmth. In Kay Bojesen's interpretation, she wears a hood that goes down over her shoulders. The little girl has patches on her dress and apron, which are kept in toned-down colors, emphasizing that she comes from poverty. Her warm smile and gentle, innocent expressions are born of the beautiful experiences she envisions while gazing in the firelight, when on a cold New Year's Eve her imagination awakens with fantastic dreamscapes filled with joy and security. In her hand, she holds a matchstick that completes the story. The Little Match Girl measures 5.7" in height and is turned in FSC-certified beech wood, and the manual production with paint and printing is carried out with the great precision and care that characterize Kay Bojesen's wooden figures. The shape is based on the original Lise figure from Kay Bojesen's archive, which is simple and minimalistic, but full of life and soul. This gives the Little Match Girl a feeling of magic and adventure that is in line with Kay Bojesen's spirit and the storytelling he managed to create in designing his imaginative figures.

A charming heavyweight turns 70. With its open mouth and whimsical expression, the Hippo is a figurine you love at first sight. It’s almost too fun to be true, and it’s easy to understand why Kay Bojesen was inspired by one of the animal kingdom’s most original characters when he created his famous and beloved Hippo back in 1955. Unlike most of Kay Bojesen’s wooden animals, which are often seen in soft and round shapes, the Hippo is somewhat more angular in design with predominantly straight and even lines – yet it excels with a big and loving smile and lots of power and a twinkle in the eye. The Hippo has that unmistakable expression of care and harmony, almost as if the strong wooden figurine communicates, ‘trust me, I’ve got your back’. According to the archives, Kay Bojesen himself had a grey Hippo on his desk. And the round birthday is celebrated with two anniversary editions in FSC® certified beechwood painted in an exclusive grey color – a true hippo color – with the large mouth painted pink. Whether you choose this anniversary version at 9 cm in height or the slightly smaller Liliput version at 6 cm, you get handcrafted quality in a beloved playful and timeless design, where the Hippos with their friendly expression, round eyes, and long strong form will add a touch of coziness and warmth to any room. Use them, for example, as small, surprising design elements in the home, peeking out where you least expect it. The two grey Hippos are only produced in 2025 and will therefore also be perfect as a unique gift for christenings, birthdays, graduations, weddings – or major anniversaries.

Welcome the Year Bird 2025… Bella! Kay Bojesen did the design, you chose the colors. With her atmospheric dark grey beak in beautiful harmony with the characteristic songbird head in a warm light grey, the discreet creamy yellow plumage on the body, and legs in a deep dark green, Bella exudes a very special calm and subtle panna cotta-like elegance that simultaneously brings forth a delicate and robust classic elegance – an icon in Danish design that will fit perfectly anywhere in the home. Bella is produced in a limited edition and engraved with the year. The Year Bird 2025 measures 12.5 cm in height and is slightly smaller than the classic songbird, but just as charming – ready to fly onto the shelf and become part of the collection. And like the other Kay Bojesen songbirds, it is made from FSC certified beechwood, which guarantees that the trees used in production are planted, cultivated, and felled responsibly. Naturally, the Year Bird 2025 is finished and painted with great precision and skill, just like all Kay Bojesen’s other figurines. Unique to the year birds, however, is that each has its own year engraved on the tail feather, and this also applies to this year’s splendid example, Bella.

Kay Bojesen's royal life guard regiment consisted of several different soldiers and the Officer was part of the troops. Kay Bojesen created the soldiers for the first time in 1940 on the occasion of King Christian the X's 70th birthday as a tribute to the Danish king. At that time, they stood guard as one meter tall soldiers outside Kay Bojesen's shop in Bredgade. In 1942, Kay Bojesen created the smaller figures in the same size as we know them from the postman and the police officer. The officer carries his saber and stands as the leader of the Regiment.

Christmas magic interpreted in wood, based on original designs from the archives. Kay Bojesen creates original stories in wood all year round, and with the Christmas Tree in Kay Bojesen's universe, you get an iconic, stylish Christmas decoration in a well-known shape based on the classic stacking tower. The tree's green color is taken from the green ring on the tower and the ball on top is painted gold, so it twinkles like a star.

You can choose exactly the one that best suits your decor—or combine two or more to create an atmospheric and minimalist still life. The Christmas trees' rings are turned in FSC certified rubber tree, while the glued-on top comes in FSC certified beech wood. As always, the manual production with paint and printing is carried out with the great precision and care typical of Kay Bojesen's wooden figurines. The wood, paint and craftsmanship are in focus and give the figures a very special quality—both physically and esthetically. Kay Bojesen worked on the basis of a philosophy that wood only comes to life when it has a story. This was common to all his figures and is also clearly expressed by the two Christmas trees, which bring the Christmas story to life with round shapes and classic lines. In the most beautiful way, Kay Bojesen's playful and imaginative thoughts live on in the Christmas tree, where red and gold baubles are mounted on the outside of the rings. Kay Bojesen insisted on awakening the imagination and the child in all of us – also in December, when an immediate joy, anticipation and magic surrounds us for 24 enchanting days—or a little more.

Kay Bojesen's bride is original and classic Danish wood craftsmanship at its best – designed in Bojesen's iconic round shapes with a familiar twinkle in her eye. The bride wears a floor-length white dress with long sleeves and feminine silver details in the form of a tie around the waist and at the wrists. Using a fine line, ultra-thin stripes have been painted on the dress, giving it a sense of movement and texture. This touch accentuates the figurine's soft shape and adds an extra dimension to the white dress. The hair is swept back in a simple hairstyle, and like Kay Bojesen's original figurines, the cheeks are red and the smile is friendly and welcoming. The figurine is made from FSC-certified beech and crafted in the same high quality that Kay Bojesen's wooden figurines are known for. Give the bride as a gift at the upcoming bachelorette party, or let the elegant figurine find its way to the gift table paired with her chosen partner.

A beautiful serving bowl from the Menageri collection. At 14 centimetres in diameter, this bowl is the perfect element for a stylish table. The bowl is produced from five-centimetre-thick staves of FSC-certified oak. When combined, they radiate a homogeneous yet diverse style, as each bowl is very special and utterly unique. In Scandinavia, wood is a cherished feature of our interior design, often in the form of furniture and chopping boards. Wood on the dining table and in the kitchen is an ever-more-popular trend. Displaying a wooden feature on your dining table or serving food in a wooden bowl adds natural and unique style.

Kay Bojesen's Dachshund was born in 1934. For years, children and adults have created the stories that have made the Dachshund part of the family. For christenings, birthdays, school leavers, anniversaries and weddings. A classic and a dear friend for life – from being a popular toy in the playroom to a much-loved design icon in a future home.

Kay Bojesen's groom is original and classic Danish wood craftsmanship at its best – designed in Bojesen's iconic round shapes with a familiar twinkle in his eye. The groom is elegantly dressed in a dark suit with a white shirt and black bow tie. Meticulous details such as buttons, pocket handkerchiefs, and lapels bring the jacket to life and the groom's happy and welcoming smile gives him charm and personality. The shape of the groom is based on the original figurines from the archives, which are simple and minimalist, but full of heart and soul. The figurine is made from FSC-certified beech and crafted in the same high quality that Kay Bojesen's wooden figurines are known for. Give the groom a gift at the upcoming bachelor party, or let the elegant figurine find its way to the gift table in pairs with the groom's chosen partner.

This pretty pair of sparrows was designed by Kay Bojesen and is made of natural oak and smoked oak. The two sparrows are 2.2" tall and have a magnet inside so they can be placed on a plank with other sparrows.

Inspired by one of Denmark's national symbols on the courtyard at Amalienborg Palace, Kay Bojesen created his hand-painted guardsmen in 1942. Ever since, the Drummer, standard-bearer and Guardsman with his rifle have been proud representatives of quality Danish design. A great gift idea that will last a lifetime for both children and adults.

Kay Bojesen designed Rattle, the first classic children's toy, in its original version in 1932. The rattle's dimensions make it easy for small hands to hold, while the ball in the middle of the rattle can move backwards and forwards, spinning around to delight the infant. The rattle is made of unpainted wood, because Kay Bojesen believed that this leaves more room for the imagination. An appealing gift idea for a christening, or as a parental leave present for anyone who appreciates authentic Danish design. The rattle is also a delightful design object for the bookshelf, and without a doubt will accompany the child on his or her journey into adulthood.

A gift for life! This Kay Bojesen first saw the light of day in the beginning of the 1930s. With its proud stance, luxurious mane and reins at the ready, the horse invites us on an imaginary journey at a brisk gallop. Its soft curves and stiff legs give the horse the typical expression Kay Bojesen's wooden family of animals is known for: Playful contours that don't try to reflect those of real animals, but imaginative variations instead, which quickly find a place in any home. A great gift idea for a confirmation candidate or graduate - for weddings and all other memorable occasions.

Give a sweet and thoughtful gift to the new graduate. It's time to celebrate the fact that all their hard work has borne fruit and they've got their diploma. The traditional Danish graduate hat from Kay Bojesen is designed specifically for the little 18.5-cm monkey, so if you want to give a monkey and the hat together, that's the size you need. The hat is made from FSC-certified black-painted beech and has the traditional black square shape with a tassle on the top – just like a real one. The tassel is on the left, so of course the Monkey passed. The Monkey is merry, whimsical and curious, with an appetite for life – which echoes how you feel armed with a wealth of new knowledge, ready to conquer the world with drive and energy. The graduate hat is a cosy and festive reminder of the graduation – either as a gift from family or friends, or as a pat on the shoulder and a present to yourself after graduating.

With its modern and minimalist look, it's hard to believe that Bojesen's Dog 'Pind' turns 90 in 2024. First crafted in 1934, Pind was one of the very first animals that Kay Bojesen designed. This anniversary edition is made from oak stained darker adding a beautiful glow to the oak's essence and a subtle underplay of different tones. Pind is embossed with a 90th anniversary logo.

Elegantly crafted salt cellar and spoon from Kay Bojesen's Menageri range. The salt cellar measures 2.8" in diameter and stands 1.6" tall. It is turned and made of oak, so you can admire the beautiful grain, which gives it a unique handsome appearance. The wood has a food grade finish, so it is less susceptible to food stains. The inspiration for the salt cellar comes from household products designed by Kay Bojesen back in the 1940s, when he crafted beautiful, useful wooden items.
