Description

A vintage Kay Bohesen style monkey, most likely made in Denmark/Scandinavia. 
Circa 1970s.

Like Kay Bojesen’s Monkey’s this has been made from many pieces of wood. 
Cleverly made to allow for movement of arms, hands and legs. 
He can stand, sit and hang – his hands are hook shaped for hanging. 
He is fully functioning. 
The fur on his head and body is most likely to be rabbit – soft and brown. 
No maker’s marks.

Used vintage condition but working and complete. 
Small – around 8cm long.

More for a top shelf and for show than for playing with – he’s quite fragile. 
Perfect for a mid-century teak sideboard or retro styled home.
