Kay Bojesen

Kay Bojesen was a silversmith and one of the first Danish artisans, who embraced functionalism. Fatherhood sparked Kay Bojesen's imagination and fascination for children, toys and wood and brought back memories of his own childhood. Kay Bojesen created a range of wooden toys that all lived up to his ideal that design should have a good feel to it and be round and soft. With his basic philosophy in mind, Kay Bojesen created his beloved wooden toys that appeal to the child within us all. Today, Kay Bojesen is regarded as one of Denmark's biggest designer names and his designs are among the most popular in Danish design and even Scandinavian design. The Rosendahl Design Group has been chosen by the Bojesen family to develop, manufacture and distribute their grandfather's popular designs.
