Mader Kreiselmanufaktur Pull-String Tree Wooden Spinning Top

An impressively large, fast spinning and robust pine tree shaped spinning top made from solid maple wood with a walnut pull-string starter. 

The Mader Pull-String Tree top is a fast spinning top with a walnut stand that doubles up as a starter cap and pull string. At difficulty level 4, this is a nicely challenging large spinning top for children and adults who have mastered the basics. This beautiful and huge fir tree-shaped top is coloured in graduating green shades and sits within its dark walnut wood stand when not in play. 

The Pull-string spinning top is a medium-difficulty top for children, at level 4 on the spinning scale. To use, place the starter cap over the shaft, thread the string through the small hole in the shaft and wind the cord up, then draw the string out in one smooth movement, remove the starter cap and watch it rapidly spin away! This is a mesmerising top that spins for minutes at a time and is ideally suited to spinning on a hard floor or large spinning plate. A wonderful addition to your Mader spinning top collection that is incredibly decorative on the shelf when not in use. Sustainably made from native Maple and walnut and coloured using natural pigments, by hand in Austria.

Mader Kreiselmanufaktur spinning tops, yo-yos and skipping ropes are beautifully crafted by hand with the greatest attention to detail. The spinning tops are rated by order of difficulty to spin - from 1 to 6, with 6 being the most challenging. Handcrafted in their workshop in Austria, each spinning tops undergoes up to 20 different processes, from turning, burning, carving and painting- all by hand. Each top is carved from a single piece of sustainably sourced native wood, and are recognisable from the ring burned around their equator, and the beautiful rainbow stripes. Loved by children and grown ups of all ages, you just can’t help but pick them up and give them a spin - be prepared to be mesmerised as they spin for minutes at a time.
