Vilac Toys and Petitcollin Dolls - Made in France
Now Available at Ape to Zebra Toys!
Deep in the Jura region of France, surrounded by mountains, lakes and forests, Vilac has been producing high-quality wooden toys and gifts for the past 80 years. Vilac was founded by Narcisse Villet in 1911 as a wood turning workshop, which later came to specialize exclusively in the finely acquered wooden toys for which Vilac is so well known. Appropriately, Vilac is in fact an amalgamation of the name of the founder, Villet, and the word lacquer. In 1985, Vilac was purchased by Hervé Hagland, who continues the Old World wood working traditions to this day.
Vilac toys are known for their classic look and feel, from their smoothly rounded, high gloss lacquered wooden vehicles, to their expansive, finely detailed puzzles. Vilac toys are timeless, with a bold durability that isn't subject to the fickle whims and ever changing fads of the day. A Vilac toy is meant to last, to be a part of your child's toy box for years to come. Vilac today divides their production between France and China, with all lacquered toy manufacturing still taking place in local Jura workshops in France. All Vilac toys are subject to the highest levels of product scrutiny, according to regulations of the European Union, to ensure that your child's toys are as safe as they are entertaining.
