The Design Story
Bordfolk (Danish for “table people”) is Lucie Kaas’s revival of the painted wooden egg holders that stood on Danish breakfast tables in the 1960s and 1970s. Designers Marie Willumsen and Esben Gravlev kept the classic shape, a little figure with a cup for a head, and dressed each one in a new outfit.
About the Designers
Marie Willumsen and Esben Gravlev designed the Bordfolk collection for Lucie Kaas. Esben Gravlev Rasmussen co-founded Lucie Kaas in 2010 and is its creative director; his eye for graphic color runs through the whole range.
Why You'll Love It
A gift with someone’s initial, no engraving wait.
The patterns and soft colors match the A–Z girls, so a family set looks like it belongs together.
A small, affordable piece of Danish design.
Where It's Best Placed
At a place setting as a name card that holds breakfast, or on a shelf in a child’s room as a keepsake (out of reach of small children).

Living With It
Beech is a natural material, so color and grain vary a little from piece to piece. Wipe each egg holder with a soft, damp cloth and dry it straight away; we recommend keeping painted wood out of the dishwasher and away from long soaks.
Who It's Not For
- Anyone wanting a dishwasher egg cup: these are painted wood, best wiped clean by hand.
- Toddlers’ play: they are tableware and decoration, not toys.
