Big icons. Small sizes. Under the heading of Liliput, you can now create original stories made of wood with three of Kay Bojesen’s famous wooden figures – the Elephant, the Bear and the Hippo – in an even smaller miniature size, where the smiling lines of the small miniature versions can't help but bring out big smiles in everyone who loves classic Danish design. The Liliput Elephant has a height of 7.5 cm, and, like its bigger siblings, stands ready with its long trunk and cute ears. The Liliput version has the same inviting round shape as the original. Perhaps it's because it has been created with the same craftsmanship, love and care that harks back to the beginning of the 50s, when Kay Bojesen’s elephant figure was born at Kunsthåndværkets Spring Exhibition. And the high quality of materials, design and finish also shines through in the three little Liliput friends. The wood remains untreated, and its inherent life, grains and characteristics come beautifully into their own in the FSC®-certified oak, which guarantees that the trees used in the production have been planted, cultivated and felled responsibly. The Liliput Elephant, either alone or together with the Liliput Bear and Liliput Hippo, is an obvious gift idea for anyone who appreciates the great craftsmanship that Kay Bojesen is known for – whether it’s for a big anniversary or a small child's birthday. Whether big, small, mini or Liliput, Kay Bojesen’s family of wooden animals has a very special appeal to children and adults alike. A wooden figurine is not a gift that is forgotten, but a dear friend that follows you throughout your life – from your childhood bedroom to a home of your own as an adult. Only design icons of a certain calibre can do this without losing relevance.

Liliput - Big icons in small sizes 

The Bear, Elephant and Hippo have shrunk and are now, if possible, even cuter than before. The new sizes create fresh original stories made of wood, and the smiling lines in a miniature version can't help but make you smile too.

Small, mini, Liliput. Three of Kay Bojesen’s minimalist wooden figurines are now available in even smaller miniature sizes under the name of Liliput. Meet Bear 9.5 cm, Elephant 7.5 cm and Hippo, only 6 cm. Utterly irresistible and charming, these creatures are ready to bring joy to everyone who loves classic Danish design and Kay Bojesen’s smiling lines.
