Spectraply Collection

Spectraply Collection

Aroundsquare’s Spectraply Collection is a growing series of some of our popular designs, built from laminated "spectraply" wood: dense layers of colour, shaped and polished to reveal topographic patterns through the contours. Individual items are released one at a time.

Note that all items in the Spectraply Collection are made from wood, and should be treated with appropriate care. Like all wood items, they are prone to getting scratched or dinged up if dropped on rough surfaces or carried with sharp items. avoid getting them wet etc. all the usual precautions. 

Mini Picador - Spectraply Edition

The Mini Picador brings Aroundsquare’s balero-inspired skill toy into a genuinely pocket-sized format, preserving the essential geometry and play characteristics in a compact, colourful package. The spectraply material provides enough weight for catches, juggles, spikes, and other familiar tricks, without the bulk of a full-sized unit.

The entire piece is polished to a smooth finish, emphasizing the distinctive appearance and satisfying tactile quality of the Spectraply. This gives the Mini a somewhat slick character, adding an interesting challenge to certain stalls and balance tricks, while leaving the core spiking and catching experience highly playable. The small format makes the Mini Picador easy to add to a daily carry setup. It slips comfortably into a pocket and offers an engaging little challenge whenever there is a spare moment.

The Mini version is not intended as a replacement for the full-sized Picador, but this funky little unit offers an invitation to enjoy the familiar challenges of the format in a different way, with different constraints, different possibilities, and a healthy dose of fun.

Knucklebone – Maple Spectraply

The Spectraply Knucklebone is done up in our OG Knucklebone shape–the original Knuckleroller, and time tested since its introduction in 2017. In the spectraply material, each piece differs slightly depending on how the layers meet the form, with stripes that shift and bend across the surface rather than reading as a flat pattern. These Kbones have been polished to bring out colour and contrast, without feeling slick or plasticky. They keep a distinctly wooden feel, and like all wooden Knucklebones, they have the beauty, charm, and vulnerabilities of wood. These are perfect for anyone who loves natural wood, but wants a little extra funk in their carry.

Details:

• Spectraply Maple Knucklebone
  • Weight: ~11.2g
  • Size: 60mm x 20mm x 8mm
