Ikonic is a Dutch design toy brand that brings together contemporary designers and artisan craftsmanship. At its heart is the collaboration with designer Floris Hovers, whose minimalist wooden cars and animals can be found in museum shops worldwide — from the Red Dot Design Museum to the Cooper Hewitt in New York. At Charles & Marie you'll find the full Ikonic collection.

The centrepiece of Ikonic is the DuoTone Cars by Floris Hovers: minimalist toy cars in wood with two-tone design. From the classic car to the van, bus and caravan — each car is reduced to its essential form and invites play and collecting. The cars are complemented by the Wooden Animals series: 13 minimalist wooden animals available as a complete set or in themed groups (Wild, Farm).

Ikonic products are deliberately designed to motivate children to play while delighting adults as design objects. The minimalist Nativity Scene (crib set) shows this approach particularly well: 15 wooden pieces that reduce the Christmas story to its essential form. Sustainability at Ikonic comes through the relationship with the object — things you're happy to pass on to the next generation.
