Kaj Franck wooden dolls






These wooden dolls stem from the Oltaro family and were a gift to the children from Kaj Franck in the early fourties. According to Fintoys only two of Francks dolls were put into production (the link display drawings of others as well) and hence these are likely to be unique. At least a couple of the dolls will soon be posted on the website.
