Monkey – 20 cm “Small”

The Kay Bojesen Monkey is a classic and a dear friend that moves with us throughout life – from the children’s room to becoming a beloved design icon in your own home.

The first Monkey saw the light of day in 1951 and is produced the same way today as it was back then.

Each figurine is handcrafted and finished at a Danish woodturning workshop.

The famous Kay Bojesen Monkey was originally created when Kay Bojesen wanted to make a coat hook for his children, but instead he ended up creating a world-famous Danish design icon.

Since then, the Monkey has come in several different sizes and versions, and the many much-loved members of the monkey family continue to find their way onto countless wish lists and gift tables around the world.

The Monkey is high-quality craftsmanship that follows us from childhood to adulthood through every stage of life, and also an incredibly popular gift idea for those you care about most.

And with this sweet figurine, you don’t just get classic Danish design from 1951.

You also get a truly unique Monkey from Kay Bojesen.

No two are alike.

And when the popular figurine is displayed – as it is in so many homes – it will affect the wood’s tones and give the already unique Kay Bojesen Monkey even more character, as its look and ‘personality’ develop over time.

Over time, the effects of light and air will change any colour variations in the wood into a more uniform, warm golden-brown tone.
