The Magritte kokeshi is inspired by the legendary Belgian surrealist artist René Magritte, developed in collaboration with the Artists Rights Society and designed by Becky Kemp. The 1964 painting 'Le fils de l'homme' is one of the most recognizable images in modern art, capturing the essence of Magritte's visionary creativity in a beautifully stylized form.
The Lucie Kaas Kokeshi dolls are made from beech wood and are carefully hand-painted and finished with a durable varnish. The characters in this collection are icons from the art & design world that influence and inspire us, but also fantasy characters.
Kokeshi dolls originally come from northern Japan. The body without arms or legs and the relatively large head are typical. Becky Kemp is the artist behind the Lucie Kaas collection. Her work is inspired by geometric expression, Japanese illustrations and Scandinavian aesthetics. At the end of 2015 she started her collaboration with Lucie Kaas. A Danish company that has a great feeling for geometric patterns and wooden objects and represents several designers.
