Lucie Kaas

Meet Lucie Kaas: the brand behind a posse of wooden dolls. Founded in 2010 by duo Esben and Ellora Rasmussen, the Copenhagen-based brand finds inspiration in everything from interiors and music to pop culture and fashion.

Influenced by the traditional Japanese kokeshi doll, each Lucie Kaas creation is crafted in collaboration with character design specialists Sketch.inc and illustrates the brand's love of colour and whimsy. Expect to find style icons in the selection, from musicians to sports legends. Lucie Kaas uses understated designs to create miniature versions of famous celebrities and personalities. The dolls feature a deceptively simple body and a subtly oversized head. Each figure is finished with one of the character's signature outfits. Blocks of colours are used to recreate a memorable look, while distinctive accessories complete each outfit. All of the doll's accessories have been delicately hand-painted, with detail paid to each individual necklace bead. Some characters have even had their body hair artistically reimagined.

These instantly recognisable characters are sure to draw attention to your mantelpiece. Charming and cute, your chosen doll will be a quirky adornment for your home or office bookcase. Searching for a more unusual option? Look out for limited-edition kokeshi dolls, which are covetable gifts for Lucie Kaas collectors.
