Introuvables dans les magasins de jouets ordinaires, ces cubes sont certes fabriqués en Chine comme beaucoup, mais semble-t-il également réservés à une clientèle autochtone. La couleur est généreuse et les motifs, baba-yagesques. Un héritage de l’entente sino-soviétique?
You won’t find these blocks in your average toy shop: they are (of course) made in China like many other toys, but it seems they’re reserved for the local market - or Chinatowns worlwide. Colour is generously applied (so glossy!) and the patterns are baba-yaggy. A gift from the soviet brother?
