Manufacture and materials of Ostheimer rabbits

The wood is sourced from responsibly managed forestry areas where ecological responsibility is paramount. Each figurine is created according to a clearly defined design and is finely handcrafted to present the wood in its pure form. The saliva-safe and non-hazardous paints contain no animal ingredients and are precisely matched to the Ostheimer design. The organic oil protects the colors. The transparent colors, which were specially developed for toys, emphasize the wood grain and make each piece unique.

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