About the Item

A wooden sculpture by Danish artist Ole Wettergren, created in the 1980s. Titled "Den eftertænksomme" (“The Thoughtful”), this work embodies introspection and stillness, expressed through pure sculptural form and the natural character of wood. Wettergren is internationally recognized for his wooden sculptures and has been featured in design publications such as ARK Journal. His practice is deeply rooted in the Scandinavian design tradition, where clarity of line, balance of form, and the beauty of natural materials come together in timeless harmony. The sculpture’s warm patina and refined silhouette highlight its meditative quality, making it an evocative decorative object for modern interiors. As with all of Wettergren’s works, it speaks quietly yet powerfully — an invitation to reflection and calm.
