Songbirds

Wooden songbird for design lovers

The singing birds from Kay Bojesen are part of the legendary wooden animal collection that made the Danish designer Kay Bojesen world-famous. The wooden birds have a pure, minimalist expression and yet still impress with their character. The Danish manufacturer Rosendahl Design Group produces the wooden animals from Kay Bojesen in close collaboration with the designer's family from high-quality beech wood, which gains in charm over the years.

70th anniversary of the legendary wooden animals

Over 70 years ago, around 1950, Kay Bojesen designed the first wooden animals. The songbirds were the only wooden animals that did not go into production and were only discovered in 2012 in old family photos. Since then, they have been available in various character designs with different names. There is a special anniversary bird called " Poppy " for the occasion. It is a little smaller than the other songbirds and has the year 2022 engraved on it.

Each bird has its own character

In Kay Bojesen s simple designs, form and object, seriousness and play merge into one. At the same time, Bojesen had the unique ability to bring wood to life, which has made his works international design icons. Despite their simplicity, the songbirds have a strong personality and are full of life: Curious and with attentive eyes, they keep an eye on their entire surroundings. Amazingly, the birds have completely different characters due to their colors. Combined, they create a uniquely imaginative mood. Full of soul, humor and craftsmanship, they are not only suitable for children: the wooden animals from Kay Bojesen are now also coveted collector's items on the shelves and in the offices of design enthusiasts.
