With the Story Birds collection, Kay Bojesen Denmark brings together poetry, personality, and responsibility in a new generation of design icons. Each bird tells its own passionate story – a memory, an emotion, a meaningful moment captured in wood and color.
In the Story Birds series, Kay Bojesen's iconic songbird is given a contemporary look with a glossy finish and carefully crafted color gradients. Each bird literally wears its feelings on its chest, captured on a small name tag with a message in both Danish and English.
The Peace variant represents tranquility, balance, and inner strength. A subdued blue palette is combined with a powerful red accent, creating a harmony between softness and expression. The wings and tail show subtle transitions from dark to light blue, while the light blue head, red beak, purple legs, and name tag create a characterful look.
At 15.5 cm tall, Ro/Peace is crafted from FSC®-certified beech wood—a conscious choice that combines aesthetics and sustainability. The result is a unique design object full of soul and emotion, effortlessly fitting into both modern and classic interiors.
A Story Bird is more than just a decorative object. It's a personal gift for a friendship, a graduation, a wedding, or an anniversary. A small work of art that expresses profound feelings.
Since 1922, Kay Bojesen has been synonymous with original Danish design, rooted in craftsmanship, humor, and humanity. With Story Birds, color, emotion, and figurative tradition converge in a modern, poetic design universe.
