Designer Jacob Hermann Material: Oiled solid teak Design year: 1958 Assembly guide: Twirling Bird Dimensions: L8,5 x W2,5 x H3,6 Colour: Small Collection: Classic Collection Unique rotating wooden birds, created in the 1950s by the Danish furniture designer and true artist, Jacob Hermann and now being manufactured by Warm Nordic. The Danish-manufactured Twirling Birds are ideal as a personal gift that will delight recipients of all ages. Each of the rotating birds has its own character, determined by the grain and colour of the wood. It can be used as a decoration or for play. You can easily spin round a Twirling Bird as an elegant version of the game ‘Spin the Bottle’. That is exactly what the artist used it for. As an elegant detail, the actual eye on some of the hand-polished Twirling Birds are also made from a little piece of wood. The beautiful birds come in an elegant box, which also makes them perfect for a sweet gift for someone you care about. Choose from several different models and exclusive oak, smoked oak or solid teak. Jacob Hermann Jacob Hermann (1910-1995) possessed an innate love of wood and craftsmanship and pursued this love throughout his life. He was always open to change and used his multi-faceted talents to explore. By his own account, he was born on a farm at Viborg and was a silver medal-winning carpenter’s apprentice in the same area before graduating as a furniture designer from the School of Arts and Crafts in Copenhagen and studying painting at the Academy of Fine Arts.
