What?

This workshop was founded in 1979 in Lubian, a little village in Spain near the border with Portugal. According to the story explained on their site “Some time ago, a woman lived in this house with her six children. The poverty that these children grew up in, along with an industriousness and an ingenuity that enabled them to make use of virtually any material they came across, resulted in some of the finest, most desirable toys a child could wish for.” This inspiring story is a great beggining for the Javier Bermejo’s company that creates nice old-fashioned quality toys, this is the Juegos de la Antigüedad collection which together with Ludus Ludi, include the whole range of products of this lovely brand.
