Manufacture and materials of Ostheimer Gretel

Based on an artistically designed pattern, each figure is traditionally handcrafted to preserve the natural structure of the wood. The oil protects the colors. All colors used are free of animal ingredients, and precisely matched to the Ostheimer design. Thanks to the transparent colors, the wood grain remains visible, making each piece unique.

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