For christenings, birthdays, school leavers, anniversaries and weddings. A classic and a dear friend for life – from being a popular toy in the playroom to a much-loved design icon in a future home.
Kay Bojesen's The Hippo is a world-famous classic for children and adults alike. With its good-natured expression, the hippo is a faithful companion all the way from the play pen.
