Scandinavian Sculptures from Cooee Design

These three are some of the Cooee Design sculptures I own, and I'm a little biased to say that they are my favorites! 



The Lion of Judah Sculpture is simply majestic! 

It was designed by Kristiina Engelin, a sculptor and designer based in Sweden.

Her sculptures have a unique and distinctive style with clean lines and simple shapes. 



These are some of Engelin's other works. The Benedict & Amal Sculptures and the BLESS sculpture are also beautiful, in my opinion. 



What I love the most about this sculpture is the lion's main. Each cut is simplified but not at all crude. 



It is also one of the more substantial pieces. It is much heavier and larger - weighing 4750g and measuring 34.5cm x 22.5cm x 17.5cm. 



The bottom of the sculpture has its name and the designer's name on it.

The Olufemi and Ollie sculptures are not sold as a pair; however, I've seen so many people styling them together. And I can see why. They look so much better together! I have them in different finishes - mud and limestone, but they look so harmonious. 



I own the Ollie Sculpture in Limestone finish. According to Cooee Design, the name Ollie comes from the olive trees. They are known for their resilience to dry temperatures. 


It is also available in Sand. 

And Mud. 

The Ollie Sculpture is much lighter than the Lion of Judah Sculpture, weighing 2500g.

The Olufemi Sculpture is in Mud finish.

The Olufemi is the lightest among the three - 1500g. Still, you won't have to worry about it toppling over as the base is sturdy and stable. I used to own a Pillar Vase from Cooee but it broke on a windy day. It had a top-heavy design, and the strong wind unfortunately tipped it over. 

It was a beautiful vase, but I don't know if I want to repurchase it. 

But you won't have to worry about the Olufemi, Ollie, or Lion of Judah Sculptures becoming tipping hazards.

The minimalistic lines found in these sculptures add a serene and peaceful touch to an interior space. And Cooee's neutral and timeless Scandinavian designs are easily mixed and matched.
