Playtime Paris 2009: Moulin Roty – Vintage French Chic For Play Every Day

Posted: July 30th, 2009

………………………………………………………………………………………………

The display by iconic French toy and interiors brand Moulin Roty was one of my highlights at the Playtime Paris childrenswear trade show last month.

Packed to bursting with the brand’s exquisite traditional ‘Memoire d’Enfant’ toys (memories of childhood) and showcasing a fantastical range of modern interior and playtime products, the stand was truly a wonderland to explore.

Although certainly not new to the children’s market, even in Australia – after all, Moulin Roty has been producing toys for over thirty-five years – this was the first time I had seen many of the Moulin Roty products in the flesh, and I found the quality and attention to detail remarkable. The packaging for each product has been carefully produced and designed too, making the brand’s products extremely giftable.

All Moulin Roty products are designed in France, and the company itself is a co-operative with all employees having equal shares and an equal say in the company’s direction. Their philosophy is based on social responsibility, and with many quirky ways of showing this; my favourite is the ‘lost comforter’ service, where a replacement to a lost Moulin Roty comforter is dispatched by urgent courier to distraught children (and parents!).

New to the Moulin Roty range is their Le Jardin collection of junior-sized gardening tools and accessories.  All of top quality, made from traditional materials and with the signature Moulin Roty vintage feel to them, they are solid, practical toys which will last indefinitely, even with rough use.

In Australia, Moulin Roty is distributed by Play Imports to a wide range of stores in each state and territory. Online, head to Send a Toy – www.sendatoy.com.au – who carry a compact selection of Moulin Roty products.

Please check individual websites for shipping details.
