About this piece
Svend Aage Holm-Sorensen's Beak Bird, from 1961, comes in two distinct silhouettes: the tall, long-necked Heron and the rounder, more compact Snipe, each further split into two poses - Tall or Low Heron, Awake or Lazy Snipe. Carved from solid oak, teak, or smoked oiled oak and finished on a simple wood base, it's a small piece of sculptural Danish craft for a shelf or console.

- Maintenance Oil-finished wood should be re-oiled every 6–12 months using a food-safe wood oil. Avoid prolonged sun exposure — UV light fades natural stains and dries out the wood. Wipe spills immediately and never leave wet items on the surface.
- Cleaning Use a soft cloth lightly dampened with water or mild soapy water. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or bleach-based products, which damage the finish and void the warranty.
Poor or improper maintenance — including failure to re-oil, use of harsh chemicals, or prolonged moisture exposure — disqualifies the item from warranty coverage and return eligibility. Please follow the above guidelines to preserve your piece.
