Da Torre

THE MASTERS
OF WOODEN
TOYS

The brand name of the wooden toys made by these three women from Alte, recalls the name of the place they come from, in the municipality of Loulé. They have taken over an old primary school, closed due to a lack of pupils, to keep alive childish fancy in the wooden toys they create and invent. Little cars, carrousels, games…delighting children from every generation. They combine wood with seeds, plants and fruits stones and pits found locally to create original pieces of jewellery. Ana, Silvina and Arliete are the Da Torre ladies and the pride of their people.
