Elle Collective | Reversible Tens Frame

Ten frames are a tool commonly used in Early education. They're used to teach the skills required to understand & recognise number patterns & relations, in an easy, tactile & organised way. Elle Collective's reversible tens frame has been thoughtfully designed to provide even more learning opportunities, and for generations!

Each beautiful, splinter-free & buttery soft frame has been lovingly handmade in the Ukraine, using high quality, ethically sourced Beech wood. Beech wood is a hard wood so it's stronger, heavier and more resistant to dents compared to other cheaper/soft woods such as pine.
