Description

Vitra Wooden Dolls Mother Fish & Child.

In 1953, American designer Alexander Girard created a collection of wooden shapes that depict both humans and animals.

He initially did this for his home in Santa Fe. Today, Girard's colorful collection of wooden shapes is produced by Vitra and continues to be handcrafted and painted. Each wooden figure is therefore unique, even if the differences between them are nil.

Inspired by Girard's passion for South American, Asian and European folk art, these adorable wooden dolls can be used as both decorative items and toys.

The two fish "Mother&Child" are the only reclining figures in the wooden dolls family and are weighted with a metal weight for stability.

About the designer:

Alexander Girard (1907-1993) was an American designer and architect who worked in interior, furniture, textile and industrial design, collaborating with Herman Miller from 1952 to 1975. Among his colleagues George Nelson and Charles and Ray Eames, Girard has been regarded as one of the pioneers of mid-twentieth-century American design. His best-known designs include the restaurant La Fonda del Sol in New York and the Girard Foundation in San Diego, which houses Girard's extensive folk art collection.
