Last month, I decided to decided to finally order the other tops I wanted from Naef.

Here we have the Bauhaus Optical mixer of colours and the Set of 5 wooden spinning tops (each being made from a different wood).

The Bauhaus Optical mixer is a lot larger than I was expecting, and this is not a bad thing but getting it to spin can be a modest challenge.

I like the feel of the wooden tops.

Overall, very happy with these.
