Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer Zicklein

The wood comes from sustainably managed forestry areas where special attention is paid to preserving the environment. The organic oil protects the colors from wear and tear. Transparent colors allow the individual wood grain to shine through and make each product unique. The paints used are saliva-safe, free from animal ingredients and perfectly match the typical Ostheimer design. Each figure is lovingly handcrafted according to a defined pattern, with the focus on the natural texture of the wood.

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