Peepul

We aim to create high quality traditional toys in the most eco-friendly and sustainable way we can

Peepul is a family business, inspired by our own little boy George, for whom the very first Peepul were made. Making them for other people made sense once our own house started getting overrun with tiny wooden folk.

They are named Peepul after the lovely way George used to point at them and shout 'pee-pul!' He is much bigger now, but since those early days, our Peepul have found their way into tiny hands all around the world.

Based in a small workshop in Faringdon, Oxfordshire, we use sustainably sourced British woods certified by Grown in Britain. We use a timber supplier in Wiltshire and a woodturner in Oxfordshire, making our supply chain local, eco-friendly and sustainable.

The peg dolls are made exclusively for us to our own specifications, so you won't find them anywhere else. They are all painted by me, Kate, using eco-friendly clay-based paints, which are oil-free, acrylic-free and virtually VOC-free, and then seal them with natural plant oils and waxes for a robust and wipe-clean finish.
