Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer birch

The colors are saliva-safe, without animal ingredients and completely harmless to health - perfectly matched to the typical Ostheimer design. Transparent colors and glazes emphasize the wood structure and make each piece truly unique. An organic oil protects the colors and preserves their radiance. The figures are carefully handcrafted according to a tried and tested pattern, with the natural wood always taking center stage. The wood used comes from sustainably managed forests, which ensures responsible use of natural resources.

Warning: Not suitable for children under 3 years of age, as small parts may become detached or broken off and swallowed.
