The Papoose coins are a fun way to explore colours, sparkly goodness and stacking. These treasure-like blocks have sparkly gems on one side. Use them for pretend play as well as building. This set comes presented in a gorgeous wooden tray.
The coins are made from Beech wood, the tray is Beech and Plywood (for the bottom). A note on the gems: in some, tiny specks of imperfections are visible. These are unavoidable. There is also a lot of handling that goes on before the actual product arrives in your home, this may also be part of the reason why tiny scratches can be seen on some gems. In working with this product Papoose/Colours of Australia sincerely do not believe this impacts in any way on the play value and it only happens occasionally.
