Chresten Sommer

Chresten Sommer has worked for many years as a boat builder. Sommer ended up becoming a designer when a little girl and her mother were visiting his workshop and the girl asked Sommer to make a small wooden figure for her. Inspired by Kay Bojesen's animal figures, Chresten Sommer began designing a variety of wooden figurines, the most popular of which are the mother seal and baby seal, now in Spring Copenhagen’s collection.
