Hi John, dun09.

On the front it just say's, I can't believe it's not twice the price.
on the back it has the bar code a safety warning about choking and fire hazard.

The only thing that might help is. Creative max imports ltd halstead co9 2sy uk
and a quick google ( DIRECT SUPPLIERS OF BEAUTY AND FASHION ACCESSORIES )
It was bought in, wilkinsons.


Regards.
Mr edd.
