A paper plane launcher made from FSC-certified birch wood, with an elastic sling mechanism and cotton cord, designed by Koens & Middelkoop Design and produced by Kikkerland. The launcher holds and propels a folded paper plane, giving it significantly more velocity and distance than a hand throw. At just over 10 inches long, it's a compact, mechanical toy with no batteries or moving parts beyond the elastic.
The design is stripped-down and functional — raw wood, minimal hardware, kraft card packaging. It sits somewhere between a toy and a desk object, the kind of thing that gets picked up, fiddled with, and demonstrated to everyone who walks into the room. Kikkerland has a long track record of producing small-format novelty items that privilege a single clever idea over ornamentation.
This works as a gift for anyone who spends time at a desk, in an office, or in a household that appreciates a low-tech distraction. Paper is the only consumable. It's the sort of object that earns a permanent spot in a desk drawer or on a bookshelf and gets retrieved regularly.
