Once Svetlana Polevaya, the founder of the Wood Den brand, was going to her friends in Switzerland so she was looking for a gift for their children. She didn't want to carry ordinary toys as a gift as they wouldn't surprise children, so Svetlana decided to bring something special, something that would always remind of Russia. This is how the idea of "matreshka" was born. The classical Russian toy become a bright detail of a modern interior and gave the feeling of warmth from Russia to adults and children.
