A wonderfully quirky piece of Scandinavian design featuring the classic “Optimist & Pessimist” figures carved from solid teak with their original furry hair and rope arms. The pair sit atop a teak base labelled Optimist and Pessimist, with the pessimistic character cleverly doubling as a cork bottle stopper.
A charming conversation piece for a bar cart, bookshelf, office, or vintage-inspired interior. Equal parts folk art, humour, and mid-century Danish design.
Original cork stopper remains intact.
Approximate dimensions:
Base: 3.5” W x 1.5” D
Overall height: 4.5”
Lovely Vintage condition with light age-appropriate wear. Cork remains functional..
