Gunnar Flørning Siamese Cats

Gunnar Flørning Siamese Cats

In brief

After many years out of production we are delighted that Gunnar Flørning's iconic cats have been resurrected in all their Danish mid-century glory. Originally designed by Gunnar in 1958, these fabulous Siamese cats are available in either black or natural wood, we think they look just purrfect dispalyed as a pair.

The ideal collectors piece, christening or birth gift.

Height 23 cm.

From 1955 to 1965 Gunnar Flørning was the man behind many of the biggest Danish design successes that were produced for the Danish company Laurids Lønborg. Of his many wood carvings he is probably best known for the world famous cat which was produced from 1958 and sold more than 300.000 pieces in Europe, North America and Japan where his designs were hugely successful.

Gunnar was sadly forced to retire from his workshops as he became severely allergic to all types of wood dust. We are delighted that a collaboration with a young Danish company called Lucie Kaas, gives Gunnar's charming animals the chance to be collected and loved as many generation have done before.

Gunnar still lives in Slangrup, Denmark.
