Grapat Bowls & Marbles

A playful study in colour, counting and coordination.

The Grapat Bowls & Marbles set brings together six wooden bowls, 36 wooden marbles and a pair of wooden tongs, all beautifully finished in Grapat’s signature rainbow palette.

At first, it might be a simple invitation to sort each marble into its matching bowl. Then comes counting, colour matching, transferring with the tongs, creating patterns and inventing entirely new games. With no prescribed way to play, the set leaves space for children to explore at their own pace and discover new possibilities as they grow.

The tactile wooden pieces and tongs make even the simplest activity wonderfully absorbing, naturally encouraging concentration, coordination and fine motor development along the way.

Handcrafted from natural wood and finished with non-toxic, water-based stains, the set retains the grain, texture and individual character of the material beneath.

Curator’s Note

Simple pieces, endless little rituals.

We love the kind of toy that doesn’t need instructions. Sort them, count them, move them one by one — or forget the rules entirely. The bowls are just as lovely filled with tiny treasures from around the playroom.

Care

Grapat pieces are made from natural wood and are designed to age beautifully with play.

Wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth when needed and allow to air dry completely. Do not soak or immerse in water, and avoid disinfectants or harsh cleaning products, as these may affect the natural wood and water-based finish.

Small variations, marks and changes to the wood over time are a natural part of a well-loved wooden toy.
