With the large selection of Ostheimer figures, endless play environments can be created.

Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer chicken house

The wood used comes from sustainably managed forestry, where the conservation of natural resources is a top priority. The figures are traditionally handcrafted according to established patterns, whereby each piece remains unique. An organic oil protects the colors and preserves their radiance. Transparent colors and glazes emphasize the wood structure and make each piece truly unique. The colors are saliva-safe, without animal ingredients and completely harmless to health - perfectly matched to the typical Ostheimer design.

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