Character: five unglazed figures by sculptor Malene Bjelke
DesignerMalene Bjelke
Character is a series of five small stoneware figures that sculptor Malene Bjelke made for Kähler. The Curious One, The Dreamer, The Reflective One, The Attentive One and The Hedonist each give shape to a familiar human trait, left unglazed with an angular, imperfect surface.

A trait in each figure
Curiosity, dreaming, reflection, attention and pleasure, each with its own story.
Unglazed and tactile
Bare stoneware keeps the marks of modelling and invites touch.
Part of a long tradition
Kähler has made ceramic figures with Danish artists for generations.
A very personal gift
Pick the character that fits the person you are giving it to.

Reflections on everyday life
Bjelke focused on aspects of human life and, while modelling, on the small biases that create dynamics and reveal beauty. The figures stay simple and naturalistic so anyone can recognise themselves.

Angular and unpolished
With an angular, imperfect and unpolished expression, the figures leave room for calm and reflection. Each has a distinct sense of space, best appreciated when it has a little room around it.

Kähler's figure heritage
Kähler has a proud history of ceramic figures made with great Danish artists. Character continues that legacy with bold, artistic elements inspired by the past and made for homes today.
Materials
- Unglazed stoneware
- A raw, matt surface that shows the hand of the sculptor.
- Natural white tone
- The unglazed body stays light and quiet beside books, plants and wood.
- Care
- Dust with a soft, dry cloth; avoid water on the unglazed surface.
Malene Bjelke is a Danish sculptor whose work with stoneware and figures grows out of long experience in the theatre. She graduated from the Danish School of Design in 1993 and has worked with theatre and costumes for more than 20 years. For Kähler she also created the Astro zodiac figures.
Using it at home
How do I clean the figures?
Wipe them gently with a soft, dry cloth. Water can mark the unglazed stoneware.
Can I buy a single figure?
Yes. Each character is sold on its own, so you can start with one and add others later.
Which figure is which height?
The Curious One is 12.5 cm, The Attentive One 13 cm, The Reflective One 14 cm, The Dreamer 21.5 cm and The Hedonist 22 cm.
How can I display them?
Alone as a small sculpture, or as a group where the different heights create a conversation between the figures.
Are they glazed?
No. All five are left unglazed to keep the raw, tactile feel of the stoneware.
