Wooderful Life by Solib

A music box is the kind of gift that lasts a lifetime: you receive one at birth and years later you recognize the tune before you know where it comes from. Drift away to the soothing melodies of the Wooderful Life music boxes and be enchanted by the wooden spinning tops. This Taiwanese brand, founded in 2012, sounds like music to our ears: handmade, made from the finest materials and with a genuine passion for creating the very best. The wood comes from sustainably managed forests and the finish is non-toxic, so such a music box can sit on a nursery cabinet for years with complete peace of mind.

A little world that revolves around music

From dinosaurs to the sea, from ballet to safari and from a unicorn with swans to Santa Claus on his carousel: every wooden music box is a little stage that comes to life as soon as you wind it up. Trains chug along, figures spin around, and the box plays for about two minutes before falling silent. The melodies are true classics, from Air on a G String to Joy to the World. Fun fact: the mechanism comes from Sankyo, the Japanese specialist in music box mechanisms, and you can hear it immediately in the pure tone. Convenient for parents: there is an on/off switch, so it stays quiet when a child has just fallen asleep.

Limited-edition works of art

Each music box is handmade by artisans and produced in limited quantities, which immediately makes them collectors' items: the larger pieces are intended for ages fourteen and up and are just as popular with adults. This makes a music box one of the most beautiful new baby gifts there are, but also an ideal gift for a wedding, a housewarming, or someone who already has everything. Piece by piece, designs that not only have a magical effect on the very young but also manage to amaze everyone.

And then there are the wooden spinning tops

In the same collection you will find the wooden spinning tops, each with its own French name: Toupie Danseuse, Toupie Cirque, Toupie Arc en ciel, Toupie Magicien. They come from the same Taiwanese workshop as the music boxes, are hand-painted and each has its own center of gravity, which means one spins more slowly and majestically than the other and children naturally compare which one keeps spinning the longest. Such a little spinning top is small enough as a gift under 25 euros and beautiful enough to display when it is not spinning. Ordered in just a few clicks and delivered to your home.
