Tender Leaf Wooden Dolphin Animal

The dolphin curves through the air, caught mid-leap and balanced on its tail. It is painted grey with a pale belly, a small eye to the side and a dorsal fin that follows the line of its back. Because of that pose it never really stands still in play — children send it diving over the edge of the box, under the table and back up again.

Tender Leaf works with reclaimed rubberwood: hevea trees that stop yielding latex after around 25 years and used to be burned. For every tree it uses, the brand says it plants a new one. The colours come from non-toxic, water-based paint and stain.
