Pieces made of beech wood. This is a children's toy, a spinning top. It consists of two pieces, a wooden handle with which the spinning top is held before throwing it, and the spinning top itself. When you hold it by the handle and pull hard on the string, the spinning top spins quickly and the handle can be detached. Both the spinning top and the handle are decorated with decorative bands made with a texturing gouge (forming a series of triangles and oblique lines), and painted in black, yellow, white and green)
