Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer Beggar

A biological oil ensures the final protection of the paint layer. All colors are not of animal origin and are perfectly matched to the characteristic Ostheimer design. The finely coordinated, saliva-resistant colors highlight the natural wood structure and make each piece truly unique. The wood comes from forestry areas that are managed according to strict sustainability standards in order to safeguard natural resources in the long term. Each figurine is handcrafted according to a fixed pattern with great care to preserve the natural beauty of the wood.

Warning: Warning! Not suitable for children under 3 years of age as small parts can be detached or broken off and swallowed.
