The seagull is a turbulence designed by Kay Bojesen, which is made of painted beech wood. The gull is unique among Kay Bojesen's animals, and was originally only produced in 23 unique copies for an exhibition in 1954.

Today, the gull is back in production in three different sizes. The agitator has a specially made spring that gives the gull a calm, rocking motion.

Material: Solid beech wood, painted by hand.
