KAY BOJESEN: Celebrating The Child Within.
fab:
Think toys are all about garish colours and plastic gizmos? Well it wasn’t when Kay Bojeson started designing toys in the 1950s. His simple, wooden toys have a classic, unspoilt charm that’s afforded them iconic status. Ditch the plastic and take it old school with our selection of hand-painted wooden toys, on sale on Fab EU today.
Today is the day to ditch the earnestness of adulthood. Today is also the day that we challenge you to define the difference between a toy and a design object.
The expressive faces and smooth bodies of Kay Bojesen’s(1886–1958) critters have managed to melt the hearts of even the most blasé editors at Fab. When they started to stroke the walnut head of the Dachshund Dog we witnessed a strange softening of jowl and a wetness in the eyes. Perhaps it was due to the spicy curry consumed at lunch, but we like to think it’s because a childhood memory popped up from the depths of their ever-churning mental cogs.
