Kay Bojesen - Monkey mini, red beech

Kay Bojesen Monkey Mini vintage red.

Design by Kay Bojesen.

Kay Bojesen's iconic Monkey Mini is now also available in this nostalgic retro version, a unique must-have. The monkey with the appearance of a joker and its light-colored belly has seen many a nursery and living room since its introduction in 1951.

The Monkey in vintage red is 9.5 cm high and is made of FSC®-certified beech wood, which is expressed on the hands and feet, face and stomach, giving the new mini Monkey a cheerful and youthful look.

The painted mini Monkeys sparkle with joy and ingenuity. With beauty and self-assurance, they bring Kay Bojesen's original stories made of wood into a whole new context. Yet the Monkeys remain iconic thanks to the classic colors of Kay Bojesen's original designs.

As such, the mini Monkey is the ideal accessory in a modern interior, where its quirky and colorful exterior will bring both style and a smile wherever you place it.

A must-have for the design enthusiast who already has everything. Or for anyone who can't get enough of Kay Bojesen's Monkeys and their fun company.

The monkey is now available in 4 sizes(!); mini, small, medium and large.

On Danish television, this design classic has a permanent place as a mascot in programs about live animals, and also as a prize in quiz programs.

Size: Height 9.5 cm.

About the designer:

Kay Bojesen (1886-1958) was an apprentice of Georg Jensen, training as a silversmith from 1906. After a few years in Germany and France, he began working as a silversmith in Copenhagen. Happily, Kay Bojesen was far too curious to restrict himself to the work of refining metals, and in the 1920s he began experimenting with other materials. In the course of his exploration, he discovered wood as a material with very special possibilities for industrial treatment and styling.
