Gabba Gabba Hey, designed for Kosta Boda by Swedish glass artist Ludvig Löfgren, is no shrinking violet and is bound to take centre stage wherever you choose to show him off. Part of Löfgren's My Wide Life series of jungle inspired creatures for Sweden's most celebrated glassworks, the huge shiny black gorilla looks a touch menacing but is so very easy to fall in love with. Hand made in Sweden.
