Billes & Co Memphis Box

French toy brand Billes & Co wanted to research the origins and history of marbles, and to get to the heart of what makes them such an enduring traditional toy. Discovering that marbles of the past were packaged in carefully arranged boxes, they set out to create their own take on these boxes, organizing the marbles into their own “universes” – from animals, and landscapes, to stories and ideas. This makes the sets perfect gifts for loved ones with a favourite colour, animal or part of the world!

Billes & Co Marbles are sourced from all over the world (including Mexico, Holland, Germany, China and the Czech Republic), then brought back to their studio and sorted by colour, size and texture. Next, beautifully illustrated boxes are created to store them.

All packaging is made from 100% recyclable materials such as cardboard and paper, with marbles which have been carefully arranged and packed by hand. A beautiful nostalgic gift for all ages, and a great way to introduce little ones to the magic of marbles!
