Mobile 3 Boats (moves on its own!)
In this bright and cheerful mobile, the “3 Boats” revolve playfully, each one balancing a ball on its nose. Another magical creation by the Flensted brand, who make mobiles according to a long Danish craft tradition, bringing a combination of imagination and tranquillity into a baby’s bedroom. Flensted mobiles provide visual stimulation for newborns who can see and appreciate simple geometric shapes, particularly if they are in movement. Seen from below, the figures change constantly, each element revolving at slightly different angles, but always in a balanced and harmonious way. Although sturdy and durable, they are very light and calibrated to move gracefully, even in an environment where there is very little movement of air. This produces a calm, peaceful atmosphere which every parent will thank you for, if you choose this wonderful invention as a gift! Already recognized as works of art by the most famous museums, and sold in their shops (including the Guggenheim in New York, Bilbao and Venezia; the Tate Gallery in London, and the Musuem of Contemporary Art in Sydney), and now brought to you by Family Nation!
