Making and materials of the Ostheimer Mutter

Handmade according to a set pattern, the precise craftsmanship brings out the uniqueness and naturalness of the wood. The wood used comes from sustainably managed forestry, where the conservation of natural resources is a top priority. The natural water-based wood stains leave the wood grain visible and give each piece its uniqueness. The saliva-safe paints are harmless to health, free from animal ingredients and precisely matched to the classic Ostheimer design. To protect the colors, it is then treated with organic oil.

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