Traditionally, owls carry with them an air of wisdom and mysticism. Paul Anker’s interpretation from 1960 is no exception.
The owl can embody a variety of emotions. The head is attached to the body by a magnet, which gives it flexibility to be tilted and rotated in all directions. The carefully crafted large brown eyes in wenge wood give a smooth touch and reflect a keen insight. Whether it is wonder, contemplation, or curiosity, the owl can be perceived to echo our own thought.
The owl has been handcrafted by Paul Anker himself for years and is still made by hand at a small wood shop in Denmark in Danish oak wood.
Paul Anker’s version of the magical, yet serene owl is rooted in his love for both animals and craftsmanship, making the owl a celebration of creativity and expression.

Paul Anker Hansen
Paul Anker’s design philosophy is based on an appreciation for playfulness at all stages of life. He believes that the “land of childhood is a land forever,” and applies his pure passion for creativity to the design of everyday objects, infusing them with a playful and light approach that brings a new attitude and imagination to one’s life.
Paul Anker’s design career started when he took his love of animals and made them in wood as small gifts for himself and his family. He eventually began to sell his designs and a hobby was suddenly transformed into a career, bringing smiles to the faces of generations to come.
