All our toys are made of solid beech wood. They are made from sustainably sourced beech, in line with EU standards and CE marked.
Beech wood is very heavy, hard solid wood. It withstands shocks and wears very well. It's a warm pale wood, elegant and soft. All our toys are left untreated without varnish or paint. The paint we use on drums and small parts is non toxic, safe for small children. Toys can be cleaned with a damp cloth but as any wood they don’t react well if they are exposed to water.

NO PLASTIC
We don't use any plastic in our packaging or wrapping. We try to minimise paper waste and use sustainable material whenever it’s possible. Our paper bags and cardboard boxes can be recycled or reused.
