Most smiles begin with another smile. The Hoptimist in wood is the epitome of smiles, optimism, and good cheer, spreading joy wherever it appears with its natural materials and round, harmonious expression. The item is made from FSC-certified oak. Height 7 cm, diameter 6 cm.

With a strong belief in the power of a smile, Gustav Ehrenreich created his cheerful Hoptimist movement in the late 1960s. The goal was to create a figure that would serve as a lasting reminder to stay positive and optimistic. Although the 60s are often referred to as "The Happy 60s," the decade was marked by unrest. Therefore, Ehrenreich's design was a welcome source of joy during an otherwise turbulent time.

Bimble and Bumble represent the very first Hoptimists from the designer's hand: a schoolgirl with smiling eyes and an attentive boy with a splint on his head. The cheerful Hoptimists are now a part of Danish design history and bring joy worldwide.
