Wildlife Garden is the Swedish brand that has turned the hand-carved animal hook into a little piece of wall art. Each piece is carved from linden wood, hand-painted, and given its own character – from fox and polar bear to fly agaric and chanterelle. At Dims Studio, the collection is handpicked by Dinna because it combines genuine craftsmanship with a playful warmth that fits perfectly in the entryway, kids’ room, and kitchen alike.
Hand-carved in linden wood, hand-painted
All Wildlife Garden products are carved from soft linden wood and hand-painted with water-based paint. Because each piece is individually carved, there will be subtle variations in lines and colors – making your hook truly unique. The hooks are cast in zinc alloy with a brass finish, giving a warm golden tone against the painted wood surface.
Animal hooks, mushrooms, birds, and more
- Animal hooks: fox, tiger, polar bear, koala, dog and cat breeds, and many more
- Mushroom hooks: fly agaric, chanterelle, and porcini
- Bird hooks and lifelike DecoBird decorative birds
- Wine stoppers with natural cork and cabinet knobs for furniture
Swedish design with respect for nature
Wildlife Garden is designed in Sweden and hand-carved in Manchuria, where local woodcraft traditions are preserved. The brand draws its motifs directly from the animal and plant kingdom and works with natural materials and water-based paints – a style that is equally lifelike and playful.
How to use them in your home
Hang an animal hook in the entryway for keys and bags, gather a little flock above the dresser in the kids’ room, or use a mushroom hook in the kitchen for tea towels. The hooks serve both as practical hangers and decorative eye-catchers – and a single figure makes a lovely personal gift for christenings, birthdays, or housewarmings.
What is Wildlife Garden?
Materials and Production
Wildlife Garden produces hand-carved items in linden wood – a soft, fine-grained wood ideal for detailed carving. Each piece is hand-painted with water-based acrylic paint, and many hooks feature inset glass eyes that give the animals expression and life. The hook is cast in zinc alloy with a brass finish. Because the work is manual, each item has small, natural variations.
Sizes and Uses
- Animal hooks: typically about 5–6 cm wide and 10–12 cm high, with a load capacity of up to about 10 kg
- Wine stoppers: about 8 cm high with natural cork, fitting standard wine and spirit bottles
- Cabinet knobs: about 4–5 cm, mounted with included screw
- DecoBird: carved in lifelike size for each bird species, supplied with hanging wire
The Story Behind Wildlife Garden
Wildlife Garden is a Swedish brand that began with a love for nature and Nordic wildlife. Today, the brand is known for its hand-carved animal hooks and lifelike DecoBirds, made in collaboration with skilled woodcarvers. The motifs range from familiar pets and garden birds to wild animals from around the world – always with attention to detail and the animal’s character.
Care and Maintenance
Wipe the products with a lightly damp cloth as needed, and avoid harsh cleaning agents and soaps that can damage the hand-painted surface. The products are intended for indoor use and should be kept away from direct moisture and prolonged direct sunlight to preserve the colors.
Sustainable Natural Craftsmanship
Wildlife Garden works with renewable linden wood and water-based paints, and the products are made using traditional craftsmanship techniques rather than industrial mass production. This creates home accessories with both durability and a personal soul – selected by Dinna for those who appreciate nature motifs and genuine handiwork.
