Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer bull elephant

Transparent colors allow the unique wood grain to shine through and give each piece its individual character. Finally, organic oil is used to protect the colors. The colors are saliva-safe, harmless to health and of course free of animal ingredients. Each shade of color is precisely matched to preserve the unmistakable Ostheimer design. Based on a detailed pattern, each figure is created by hand so that the wood can unfold its full splendor. The use of wood from sustainable forestry ensures a balance between resource use and conservation.

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