Kay Bojesen
2 Sizes
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.

The bright mini version is inspired by colours from an original wallpaper designed by Kay Bojesen in the late 1940s for the children's room. And you get a clear sense of originality and retro vibes in these dusty shades, which beautifully accentuate the cool tone of the beech wood. the monkey in vintage blue measures 9.5 cm in height and is made of FSC certified beech wood, which adorns the hands and feet, face and tummy and gives the new mini monkey a cheerful and youthful air. The painted mini monkeys sparkle with joy and ingenuity. With beauty and confidence, they bring Kay Bojesen's original stories made of wood into a new context. Yet the monkeys remain iconic thanks to the classic colours from Kay Bojesen's original designs. As such, the mini monkey makes the ideal fun accessory in a modern decor, where its quirky and colourful exterior will bring both style and a smile wherever you put it.

All Liliput animals are made from FSC-certified oak, which guarantees that the trees for production are planted, grown and felled responsibly. The Liliput Bear also has details in FSC-certified maple, which help to emphasize the Bear's soft design.

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.
