Our tournament quality, pressurized tennis balls are handmade in England by a small, family run company that has been making balls for over 80 years and crossing 3 generations.
The white melton encased rubber ball was standard for almost a century until the ITF recommended the switch to optic yellow in 1972 – tracking a white ball on color television proved rather difficult. Today, 24 years after even Wimbledon made the switch, the Rodakis Open is still played with white balls, really the only reason it isn’t televised.

Push Elephant
Our little elephant wiggles if you push his base and since you’ll eventually get bored by that he’s also fantastically looking on a shelf, a desk or a Lancia HF dashboard.

Push puppets were invented by the Swiss Walther Kourt Walss in 1926 who produced them in the Ticino region under his Wakouwa brand before moving production to the Ore Mountains, where our wood carver makes them since 1954 in the third generation.
