The Cameo by RUX baby rattle is a customized toddler toy that boasts the portraits of moms and dads on either end. A unique sculptural creation, it was conceived by Russell Greenberg after his first child was born last year in September. To achieve an abstract aesthetic, the portraits are blurred out silhouettes rather than detailed carvings of the parents' faces.
Crafted by hand out of maple wood using a lathe in Long Island City, New York, the Cameo by RUX baby rattle is the ultimate gift for new parents. Since they are modeled after photographs, these rattles can easily be a surprise as well. An all-natural toy, the handle is etched with the baby's name.
