The Long Ago
$169.00
The First Thing He Will Ever Study
A newborn can focus on very little — maybe eight inches, maybe a foot. For the first months, the world is mostly soft shapes and light. Whatever hangs above the crib becomes one of the first objects a person ever looks at properly, day after day, while everything else is still a blur.
That felt worth making well.
Twelve Hours, One Needle
Someone sits down with a barbed needle and a pile of loose wool, and stabs it. Thousands of times. Slowly the fibres tangle and compress until a long neck holds its own curve, then a head, then a face at the end of it. It takes about twelve hours for one mobile.
No molds, no machinery, no two identical. The zigzag crack across the hatching egg runs a different way on every one. We can only finish a few each week, which is why yours is made after you order it rather than pulled off a shelf.
What Hangs From the Hoop
- The long-necked one — Pale sage with a curved neck, the largest piece and the one that turns slowest.
- A triceratops — Rust red with three small white horns and a frill felted flat.
- A hatching egg — Cracked open with a spotted head already looking out.
- A volcano and the earth — One smoking, one blue and green with continents shaped by hand.
- A fern leaf and a footprint — Sage green fronds, and one three-toed print pressed into sand.
Everything moves independently in the smallest draft. There is no motor and no music — just weight, balance, and the air in the room.
Nothing You Wouldn’t Want Above a Sleeping Baby
100% New Zealand wool, dyed with non-toxic, skin-safe colours. The hoop is solid beechwood, sanded and left untreated — no lacquer, no varnish, nothing that yellows or off-gasses. No plastic anywhere. No glue holding it together.
