A delightful pair of vintage hippopotamus figurines designed by Gunnar Cyrén for Dansk Designs as part of the iconic 1980s “Silver Zoo” series, produced in Japan.Crafted in silver-plated zinc, the figures possess a pleasing weight, making them perfectly suited as functional paperweights while also serving as sophisticated decorative accents. Cyrén’s signature Scandinavian modern aesthetic is evident in the simplified, sculptural forms—charming yet refined, with smooth contours and a luminous polished finish that reflects light beautifully.Please note that the platform’s price guidance tool may not accurately reflect the value of our items.
