Kay Bojesen - Monkey medium, teak wood

KAY BOJESEN MONKEY, MEDIUM.

Kay Bojesen's monkey with its mischievous appearance and light-colored belly has transformed children's rooms into jungles since 1951 and arouses dreams of faraway places. He plays a regular role on Danish television as a mascot for nature programs and as a prize in quiz shows. Each monkey consists of 31 wooden parts and is handmade in Denmark. Due to a small variation in shade and wood grain, the monkeys all have a unique and charming personality.

This medium sized monkey is made of teak and limba wood and is 28 cm high. Legally harvested limba wood complies with the European Union Timber Regulation (EUTR) and the plantation teak guarantees responsible harvesting and better living conditions for the local people who live close to the plantations.

Material: teak, limba wood

Height 28 cm
