It started with a stork \u2013 in the form of a small, innocent mobile with three small storks \u2013 which the founder of the firm Christian Flensted, made for the christening of his daughter, Mette<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The idea came with the stork<\/b><\/h3>\nThe Flensted Mobiles fairytale is actually based on two straws and three paper storks.\n\nFor this was what Christian Flensted cut out and assembled in 1953 when the christening of his daughter, Mette, was going to be celebrated. The result was the stork mobile, which was only conceived of as being a fun, ingenious and personal gift, but ended up as the prelude to Flensted Mobiles.\n\nFor only a year after the daughter\u2019s christening the firm Flensted Mobiles was established.\nAnd to this very day the stork mobile has remained in production.\n\nWhen Christian Flensted founded the firm, along with his wife Grethe, the family was living in Aalborg \u2013 in the three-room flat where the workplace was the dining table and storage room was under the sofa.\n

Well-known \u2018restless spirit\u2019<\/b><\/h3>\nChristian Flensted became known as \u2018Uromageren\u2019, directly translated \u2018troublemaker\u2019. \u201cUro\u201d is the old dansih word for mobile and \u201cmager\u201d is the word for maker. This nickname corresponded well with his creative capacity to create elegant, classic designs \u2013 and unique, extraordinary mobiles that can both set their surroundings in motion and create a balance of mind. For when it comes to mobiles, rest and restlessness make a happy couple.\n\nIn 1956, the Flensted family returned to their native island of Funen. Here the family and firm settled in an idyllic farmhouse with adjoining workshop near Tommerup. The place was christened \u2018The Stork\u2019s Nest\u2019 after the first mobile.\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Ole Flensted likes to be close to the entire process, from the first concept and sketches to the finished mobile<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\tIn 1972, production had increased to such an extent that another removal became necessary. This time it was to the former school \u2018Frederiksminde\u2019, close to Brenderup and also on Funen. This old, historically interesting building is still the home of Flensted Mobiles.\n

The baton passed on<\/b><\/h3>\nIn 1982 Grethe and Christian Flensted decided to pass the baton on to Ole. In connection with this change of generation at Flensted Mobiles, the running of the company was now taken over by Ole and his wife, Aase. They have continued to operate the mobiles company every since, paying great respect to its ideals and creative angle on the world. The older generation gave room to the younger, so that they could leave their mark on the company \u2013 new mobiles came onto the drawing board, and new markets were opened up.\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
