Ducks

Hans Bolling / Architect Made

£65 large, £35 small

You more often hear of moments being set in stone. But wood is the material in which a moment of Danish history has been preserved. In 1959 a policeman stopped traffic in Copenhagen to let a mother duck and her brood cross the road safely. A picture of the incident appeared the next day in numerous local newspapers, which caught the eye and captured the heart of the designer Hans Bolling. Reissued this year his teak models have momentarily bumped Kristian Vedel's chubby birds off our mantel.
