The Story
Most smiles start with another smile. The Hoptimist in the wooden version is the epitome of smiles, optimism and good mood, and with its natural materials and round, harmonious expressions, it spreads joy wherever it ends up.
The item is produced in FSC®-certified oak (FSC-C166612).
With a strong belief in the power of the smile, Gustav Ehrenreich created his happy Hoptimist movement in the late 1960s. The goal was to create a figure that was a perpetual reminder to remain positive and optimistic. Because although the 1960s are often referred to as "The Swinging 60s", the decade was characterised by unrest. Therefore, Ehrenreich's design brought joy in an otherwise turbulent time.
Today, the happy Hoptimists are part of Danish design history and create joy around the world.
