Established in 1980 Gepetto Toy Craft is a New Zealand company specialising in the manufacture of handmade wooden toys for babies. Their manufacturing process has been perfected through the years and now produces the highest quality product based on traditional European craftsmanship, combining safety and style in a long lasting wooden toy designed to stimulate and entertain.
