The Little Match Girl is dressed in a hood that goes down over her shoulders. The patches on her dress and apron have subtle colours to emphasise her poverty. Her warm smile, together with a gentle and innocent expression, are born from the beautiful experiences she sees when glancing into the light of the flames, where on a cold New Year’s Eve she awakens her imagination with some fantastic dream visions filled with joy and security. In her hand, she holds a match that completes the story. The Little Match Girl stands at 14.5 cm high and is made from FSC®-certified beech wood. The manual production of painting and printing has been undertaken with the great precision and care typical of Kay Bojesen's wooden figurines. The shape is based on the original Lise figurine from Kay Bojesen’s archive, which is simple and minimalist, but full of life and soul. This gives The Little Match Girl that air of magic and adventure synonymous with Kay Bojesen’s spirit and the story he managed to conjure up when designing his imaginative figurines.

Kay Bojesen
Kay Bojesen is one of the big Danish designers. He was able to turn wood into original stories like no other. He had a knack for bringing the wood to life. Or as he put it: “Making the line smile”. And the lines certainly smile in each of the Wooden Animals – which have all become iconic.
