Dressed in the traditional dark blue sailor suit and familiar white hat, set at a jaunty angle, Kay Bojesen's hand-painted wooden Marine makes a welcome return to the popular collection of uniformed figures. The original figures were produced until the late 1950s and many of them soon became collectors’ pieces with admirers across the globe. Re-instated into the family for a new generation of collectors, the beautifully crafted and gift packaged Marine makes a superb gift that is sure to be treasured by children and adults alike.

Kay Bojesen's intention was never to create exact replicas of wildlife, but rather to produce animals whose designs reflected a child's view of animals. His creations, designed between the 1930s-50s, were to be based on simple, beautiful shapes, tactile materials and should inspire imaginative play. Thus his charming menagerie of solid, tactile designs took shape. Fulfilling Bojesen's dream, his playful collection of animals and figurines, now produced by the respected Danish Rosendahl Group, have become treasured classics the world over.
