What is that looking at us from the shelf? A rather artistic figure from the house of 'Vitra'!
It is part of the Wooden Dolls company, which Alexander Girard first designed for his own home in Santa Fe in 1952. The sometimes cheerful, sometimes grim faces of the figures inspired then just as today, which is why 'Vitra' has included them in its own collection. As in those days, every single doll is made and painted by hand. Thus, each 'Wooden Doll' is also unique.
Alexander Girard dealt intensively with different folk arts during his creative work and often found a source of inspiration in them.
As a small, charming enrichment of the interior, each of the 'Dolls' sets accents and looks especially together with other figures from the family really cool.
