Debut
- Steam Rocket, Red Tin Toy
- About Tucher + Walther
Handcrafted just outside Nuremburg, Germany, this limited edition Red Steam Rocket tin toy is ready for launch. Powered by a real Wilesco steam engine, this Steam Rocket is perfect for mechanically curious kids ages 10+, adults and collectors alike. It makes a clever conversation piece and is ideal as a home office accent as well as birthdays and corporate gifts.
Tucher + Walther pride themselves on their traditional tin toy making methods, which is no different than when they were made at the peak of their production back in 1880 - techniques that are all but lost among today’s manufacturers. Each tin toy starts out as a single piece of tin plate. Artists then cut the tin into individual pieces and punch, stamp, curve and emboss them. Once the individual pieces have been completed, they are soldered together by hand, have their steam mechanisms fit, are sprayed with color and, finally, embellished with paint by hand.
Limited to only 250 pieces worldwide, this tin Steam Rocket is numbered and comes complete with its own certificate of authenticity and box for safekeeping.
