These are fab! I picked up some at the East London Design Fair. There were some mini testers doing a brilliant job of marketing them!

Gorgeous find!! There's nothing quite like a beautiful wooden toy for little ones in my opinion!

Very Lovely. I watched similar one in Orlando fair and bought 4-5 pieces for decorating my drawing room.
