A rainbow baby toy has been slammed online thanks to the only colours used being various shades of grey and beige.

The sweet toy features eight stackable arched pieces, which together form a rainbow shape.

But instead of the usual red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet, there is taupe, beiges, creams and greys.

“That has to be a filtered pic right? Right??” one shocked user wrote.

One person asked: “Why do they want to live in a color-less world?”

Someone else said: “Talk about a unique take on the rainbow—who knew beige and misery could make the list?”

The toy is sold by Swedish design company Jabadabado and describes itself as “synonymous with wooden toys and children’s room decor in a playful and trendy design”.

The toy is out of stock on the company website but retails in other online shops for around £25.

Other toys in the collection include a pull-along snail toy for the rainbow to sit on, and puzzles featuring equally muted tones.
