Penguin

The penguin has grown to be very special to us here at Urban Coo. One of the first items we decided to sell, which has developed into an undisputed bestseller and has also grown to be a favourite item in our own home, one which our children will go on to treasure.

This elegant, wooden Penguin is hand painted and made from beech. The painted back represents the gracious plumage of the bird whereas the unpainted chest reveals the natural qualities of the wood. When paired together the large and small complement one another beautifully and, to us, perfectly depict the love of parent and child. These objects would make a very special gift to be passed down generations.
