Wooden toy 'Monkey'

Have you ever seen children playing in the woods? If so, then you might have noticed that children are not in need of funky toys full of plastic and blinking applications. No, the only thing they need is what they already have – their imagination! And this is where the toy ‚Monkey‘ comes to play! The handmade wooden toy ‚Monkey‘ comes in a clear and clean shape and is made out of a 100% solid wood. The legs can be moved seperately and the tail can be rotated. Providing these basic features the ‚Monkey‘ addresses the imagination of children and supports their free play. You don‘t have children but you like the ‚Monkey‘? No problem! With its clean and simple shape the ‚Monkey‘ fits every modern interior. Thus it can be totally used as a design object as well. When building the ‚Monkey‘ I united traditional crafts and techniques with the modern laser cut technology. Next to that I explored different ways of treating the wood with hand tools.
