Take-G toy’s are wooden hand-made toys from Takeji (Take-G) Nakagawa. His motto is “to bring wooden beauty and quality into life”.

Takeji wooden robots

So, G-toys can be called wooden robots, and there is a great contradiction in this formulation. Why? Because as a rule, talking about robots, we imply something cold, artificial and completely metal, but here we deal with wood, that is a warm material, very cozy and pleasant. These robots help to unite our future and our past and what is more they prolong lives of trees.

Sometimes it takes up to 50 years for one tree to grow and to look like a small tree and not a bush, so Takeji thinks that it is not right, when trees die and nobody cares. He breathes new life into these trees.

If to be precise, all the toys are made in Japan, using the traditional craft skill together with modern design techniques, various kinds of wood are involved.

Life in Art Deco Style
by Jazzassin
Art Deco: It's the most subtle of all styles of architecture, art and furniture, imho. Always looks modern - almost futuristic, nearly a 100 years after its origin at the World Exhibition 1925. Never goes out of style. Always elegant & stylish in a practical way. The world as a whole should be designed
SHOJI. Japanese holding screens.
by Furniture
Japanese shoji screen is made of paper, fabric, or glass on a wooden frame. And you should know that it could be used as a room divider, or for windows or doors. The traditional Japanese house is similar to a very large piece of furniture, especially the floor and the tatami
