Gigglewick Wood Egglets

Nostalgia is a wonderful thing! There is a wistful affection for these beautiful tactile Gigglewick Wood Egglets!

Handcrafted from carefully selected FSC certified hardwoods in our own workshop in Worthing, they are then polished and buffed to a beautiful finish in the Gigglewick Gallery! 

Pick one up and your senses are flooded with pleasant stimuli due to their iconic shape, tactile surface and perfect weight! Look through the top brass eyepiece and you are transported back to your childhood as you carefully turn the Egglet and experience the kaleidoscope experience.

Not a Toy

A favourite of the grown-ups with the child inside, they should still be shared with the young ones! However, the Egglets do contain small glass mirrors and have a reasonable weight and any enjoyment by young children should be supervised. We do not consider them to be toys.

Care

The Egglets are polished to a satin gloss with a premium oil that provides a tough durable lasting finish. It has excellent resistance against liquids such as water, juices, wine, coffee, beer and fizzy drinks and does not peel, flake, crack or blister. The oil is selected to enhance the natural beauty of the wood and is food safe.

Care should be taken not to drop it onto a hard service. If it gets wet then wipe with a dry cloth and never immerse in water. The inner workings are sealed but if moisture does get in the kaleidoscope feature may not work properly

Each Egglet comes in a box or a hessian pooch, or both. It is entirely your choice. Each Egglet includes a QR code which will link to information on the how it was created and, wherever possible, tell its story!
