Gambosa mushroom spinning top – Eperfa

The beautiful handmade wooden spinning top inspired by the Gambosa mushroom by Eperfa is a delightfully classic toy for all ages and offers an endless variety of open-ended play possibilities. Spinning tops are one of the world’s oldest recognisable toys and provide sensory rich experiences for children and adults alike!

Designed to be spun on its vertical axis, the spinning top is a toy used since antiquity in solitary or competitive children’s games. The purpose is to keep the top spinning upright as long as possible after being set in motion.

This delightfully tactile and softly rounded spinning top is inspired by one of the types of mushrooms commonly found in the Hungarian forests: the Gambosa. It measures 6 x 9 x 9cm and is bound to be cherished for years to come!

Sure to become a family heirloom toy to pass on through the generations, this spinning top has been handmade and hand painted in Eperfa’s small workshop in Budapest, Hungary. It is made from hornbeam wood, derived from responsible forestry from the Duna-Ipoly National Park of Hungary

The Eperfa Gambosa mushroom wooden spinning top is suitable for children aged 5 years and up.
