Vintage Danish Kay Bojesen Hanging Fur and Teak Wood Figure

Jon Nix — Mon, 12 Oct 2020 09:57:51 +0000

Almost certainly made by Kay Bojesen, this vintage Danish figure with wooden teak body and long articulated arms and fur hair is often referred to as a caveman. Caveman, gorilla, ape... who knows, but what is certain is that this smiling figure - who can either hang from his hands or can stand in position - has quirkiness in abundance. with painted noise, eyes and mouth and oversized hands and feet.

The figure measures 18cm (7 in.) approximately in length from head to toe and 28cm (11 in.) in span from hand to hand with arms outstretched. It will hang from a nail or hook, or from a shelf, or can free stand with a little persuasion. He's in good condition considering his age, just suffering from some slight fuzzying of his fur around the eyes, some gaps to the fur around his legs, and some wear to the painted surfaces.

Vintage Kay Bojesen Style Hanging Wood and Fur Figure

In the style of Kay Bojesen, this vintage Danish inspired hanging figure with wooden body, long hooked arms and fur hair invariably causes a smile on the face of those who see it as broad as its own smile. In good vintage condition - with some minor wear and tear to the paintwork and most likely re-strung at some point - it's a slice of kitsch decor which has great appeal to this day.

The figure measures 18cm (7 in.) approximately in length from head to toe and 25cm (10 in.) in span from hand to hand with arms outstretched. It will hang from a nail or hook, or from a shelf.

Vintage Die-Cut Cardboard Circus Figures

Roll up, roll up, roll up...

A set of vintage circus figures which we believe date from the 1970s and which features a weightlifting muscle man, a ringmaster, a clown, a trapeze artist and horse, an elephant, a monkey and a seal balancing balls and a fish. These are incredibly cute and colourful figures which, though showing some signs of wear and tear, make for a wonderful display piece or colourful piece for the collector of cirus-related items. It is possible that the elephant is missing an additional piece - although the ringmaster figure does sit on its back which might be his intended location. We are fairly sure that the original set of figures contained more items, but this collection of figures is complete bar that.

The figures range in size from a height of 11.5cm (4½ in.) to 29cm (11 in.). The figures are solid but do have some scuffing and slight deformation from use, but given their age and material we think they have surived very well indeed.
