Grapat Adult Nins in Dark Wood 2 Pieces

The set contains two large Nins made from dark wood, one painted black and one white. Each figure stands about 10cm tall, which is noticeably bigger than the standard Nins. Their larger size lets children add grown-ups to their play, so families in a small world scene can include different generations.

Grapat recommends the Adult Nins from around 12 months. The two figures are larger and simpler than small loose parts, which suits younger children, though close supervision is always sensible at this age. As children grow, the Nins become characters for storytelling, role play and family scenes.

The Nins are open-ended figures with simple faces, so children decide who they are. Grapat suggests using them to explore families and generations, since their larger size sets them apart as adults next to smaller Nins. Children can also decide the gender of each figure and weave them into small world stories and role play.

The two figures are made from dark wood and finished with water-based dyes, in the black and white shown. Grapat is a small family run workshop in Catalonia, Spain, inspired by Waldorf principles and using locally sourced sustainable timber. Because each figure is finished by hand, small differences in tone are normal.

Grapat offers Adult Nins in both light and dark wood. The two versions let children explore differences in skin tone through play, and families sometimes use both together for more variety. This dark wood set contains the two darker toned figures painted black and white.

Yes. The Adult Nins are made to sit alongside the standard smaller Nins, so their larger size stands out as grown-ups within a family. They also mix with other Grapat loose parts such as houses, rings and mandala pieces for fuller small world play. You can see more in our /collections/grapat-nins-bowls.
