Hoptimist Decorative figurine Bumble XL

Firmly believing in the power of a smile, Gustav Ehrenreich created the cheerful Hoptimist movement in the late 1960s. The aim was to design a figurine that would constantly remind people of the importance of staying positive and optimistic. Although the 1960s are often referred to as "the happy 60s," this decade was marked by troubling events. That's why the joy spread by Ehrenreich's design was welcome during a rather turbulent time. Bimble and Bumble are the very first Hoptimists created by the designer: a girl dressed in a dress with smiling eyes and a thoughtful boy with a stick on his head. Today, the cheerful Hoptimists are part of the history of Danish design and bring joy worldwide. The figurines are available in four different sizes and in a wide selection of colours that spread optimism, good vibes, and joy. There is a Hoptimist for every occasion and every person.
