Take-G Toys by Takegi Nakagawa - Take-G toys are made using an ancient Japanese craft called Yosegi-Mokuzougam or, marquetry. Essentially the artist inlays different textured and coloured wood pieces and other natural materials to create his figures. Takegi uses the highest quality woods such as maple, walnut, cherry and white ash in order to create toys that are not only unique and beautiful, but long lasting.

The cool futuristic robots and children figures featured above are sold only at craft exhibitions, however Takegi Nakagawa also makes a great set of construction and assembly blocks available to the public.
