The Balancing Rocks are a natural, eco-friendly and non-toxic wooden toy, suitable for all ages from toddler to adults. Perfect as both a toy or decoration for homes, nurseries, and offices alike.
Inspired by the ancient Japanese game of stone balancing – “Tum Ishi” is Japanese for piled stones. We have all seen the calming and meditative images of stones piled-up on top of each other. Our handsome indoor version of this ancient art is hand-carved from premium grade acacia wood. Each stone is whittled by artisans and polished with an organic wax.
The set includes 12 balancing rocks, measuring between 1″ and 4″ in length and 1.5″ in width.
