Jaques of London toys are designed in the UK. Like most wooden toy makers today, production uses carefully selected international manufacturers who meet the quality and safety standards the brand has upheld since 1795. Every product is tested to current UK and EU toy safety regulations before it reaches customers.

No. Sale items at Jaques are the same toys sold at full price; they appear in the sale because of end-of-line decisions, seasonal changes or overstocked lines. The solid wood, non-toxic finishes and craftsmanship are identical. You are getting the same heirloom-quality piece for less.

Wipe wooden pieces with a lightly damp cloth and dry them straight away. Avoid soaking in water or leaving them in direct sunlight for long periods, as this can cause warping or fading. A very light rub of beeswax or natural wood oil once a year keeps the surface in good condition and extends the life considerably.
