Manufacture and materials of Ostheimer's Little Red Riding Hood

The use of wood from sustainable forestry ensures a balance between resource use and conservation. Each figure is lovingly handcrafted according to a set pattern, with a focus on the natural texture of the wood. The organic oil protects the colors. All colors used are saliva-proof, 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.
