These wool felt animals are developed in one of MUJI's global initiatives helping developing countries to share their traditional culture or skill with the world. Read more about our One Village One Product Project.

Using wool from Kyrgyzstan, the shape is formed by repeatedly poking the wool with a needle in a process called needle felting.

Kyrgyzstan is known as the Alps of Central Asia for its rich natural beauty and comfortable climate. The families living in the scattered villages have since ancient times made their living through nomadic pastoralism and the production of wool felt.

[ About Found MUJI ]
MUJI has always looked at life from the perspective of "searching and finding" rather than creating things. We have been searching the world over for daily necessities that have been used for a long time without going out of style, slightly improving them under changes in lifestyle, culture, and customs, and revitalizing them at a reasonable price.

Since 2003, we have named this activity "Found MUJI" and began a journey to find good things by delving into the details of the world.
