This family of Wooden Birds was designed by Kristian Vedel in 1959. It was only when the original small Bird was set in production, it quickly became one of the most successful Danish wooden products from the 50s. This was quickly expanded to a whole family of grandparent, child and grandchild.
Today, the Wooden Birds are all handmade by a small wood turner in Denmark who only uses high quality smoked and natural oak wood. By tilting their heads in virtually any direction, the Birds can express every frame of mind - happy, sad, curious, alert, etc. The bodies can be turned upside down making it either a male or female.
