Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer chicks

Each figure is lovingly handcrafted according to a set pattern, with a focus on the natural properties of the wood. The saliva-safe and non-hazardous paints contain no animal ingredients and are precisely matched to the Ostheimer design. The organic oil protects the colors. The transparent colors, which were specially developed for toys, emphasize the wood grain and make each piece unique. In the forestry used, the focus is on long-term sustainability and the protection of the natural environment.

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