Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer giraffe

The wood used comes from sustainably managed forests, where the conservation of natural resources is a top priority. Based on a detailed pattern, each figure is created by hand so that the wood can unfold its full splendor. The transparent colors applied by hand allow the wood structure to come into its own, giving each piece its individual character. Organic oil protects the colors. The saliva-safe and health-safe paints are free from animal products and precisely matched to support the unique Ostheimer design.
