The name of the male skier, boje, was the pet-name of Bojesen's son Otto. The original wooden figures are very rare, as they were only produced in small series. With their cheerful expressions, this pair of skiers always make people smile, and they are all set to conquer Danish living rooms and homes again in this relaunch. Both skiers are made of painted beech in the same way as the Royal Guardsman. The skiers stand 6.1" tall.

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.
