We take pride in our craftsmanship. The tree and baubles are sanded by hand and have an incredibly smooth finish.
All our wooden toys are made of plain, solid wood. We will never work with engineered wood like plywood or MDF. We use European, solid beech wood that we source from our local timber merchant.
The tree has a rustic look, ideal for long and cosy winter evenings. It is finished with a natural blend of oils and waxes. Our baubles are hand-painted with safe acrylic paints.
Our toys are compliant with the EU and UKCA Toy Safety Regulations (EN71).
Get ready for the festive season!
