OplaToys: Forest Gnomes (four season set)

€36,00

In the deep forests of Slovenia, countless magical secrets are hidden. The forests are home to magical folks and spirits who live in harmony with the seasons, aiding nature and all the creatures that reside there. Sometimes, during your forest walk, with the open heart of a child, you might catch a glimpse of one swiftly moving in the bushes as they try to hide from you!

However, our little Forest Gnomes aren’t afraid of you! They are ready for many adventures – whether outdoor or in your homes. The four hand-painted gnomes symbolize the four seasons and come nestled in a mushroom, their secret hiding place where your child can provide a safe haven for them to rest. Perfect for imaginative play, decoration on the seasonal table representing each season, and even as a fun little spinner!

The toys of Primož Rojc are very distinct from any other toy in our offer – and that’s where their beauty lies also. They remind us of old, nostalgic toys made in the workshops of our grandfathers. They are made with heart, and also by hand, and the paints and finishes therefore are a bit more uneven, and a bit rougher. Each piece is unique, and we recommend it to people who appreciate handicrafts and homemade toys, and see value in their imperfections. By purchasing this toy you are also supporting a small Slovenian family workshop.
