Mystery Top

Takeichi Sasahara

The gravity-defying ballet of spinning tops has fascinated curious minds since ancient times. This variety of wooden tops honors that rich history with styles ranging from Art Nouveau to Bauhaus to Modern. We wanted to share these lovely little tops with a bit of a twist... Each of the boxes is packed "blind" which means that even we don't know which of the ten different varieties is inside which box. Enjoy the surprise—you won't be disappointed. Designed by Takeichi Sasahara and hand-turned from a variety of indigenous woods on the Japanese Island of Hokkaido.
