Wooden birds were designed by Kaj Bojesen in the 1950s but were never put into production at the time. Now these wonderful personalities can find friends among design lovers all over the world.
The Bojesen’s patio at the family home Bella Vista near Bellevue, north of Copenhagen, was full of flowers, wicker furniture – and birds. There can be no doubt that this is the source of Kay Bojesen’s inspiration for the carefree songbird that he designed in the 1950s. All birds have a clean, modern expression, stripped of superfluous details. The birds are so lifelike that it is easy to imagine them breaking out in song as the sun rises.
These little lovebirds are a wonderful gift idea for newlyweds. Made out of oak, they’re a beautiful addition to any interior.

Kay Bojesen
Denmark (1886-1958)
Kay Bojesen finished his training as a silversmith in 1910 and in 1913 he established his own workshop. He was one of the originators in the establishment of The Permanent Exhibition of Danish Arts and Crafts and Industrial Design in 1931.
Kay Bojesen worked both as a silversmith and a designer. He was originally influenced by the Danish arts and crafts style, Skønvirke, but graduallydeveloped a moderate functionalism. This was expressed in his works in both silver and stainless steel, as well as the wooden toys, among them the famous ape from 1951.
Bojesen has, however, also created a few products in cane such as the doll’s bed.
