About Us
The standard we set
We're Marketa and Lucie - two sisters who spent a long time looking for children's toys we actually wanted to give.
Not more plastic. Not toys that last a season and end up in a bag for the charity shop. Something soft, something beautiful, something a child would still want at ten.
We couldn't find exactly what we were looking for. So we built Pintado & Lacado around finding it for you.
What we look for
Every toy in our collection is selected against the same criteria: soft cotton knit exterior, no hard plastic parts, CE certified, and tested in European laboratories. If it doesn't pass, it doesn't ship.
We're particular about materials. The cotton yarn exterior is soft enough for a newborn. The polyester fill holds its shape through years of daily hugging. These are toys built to last - not to impress for a week.
Where we ship from
We deliver across Europe from local warehouses in Denmark and Czech Republic. Danish and Czech orders arrive in 1-2 days. The rest of the EU: 2-5 days.
Fast enough to solve a forgotten birthday. Beautiful enough to wrap properly and give with pride.
The kind of toy that earns its place.
Some toys make it into the box of things children can't throw away when they grow up. That's the standard we're building toward - one animal at a time.
