Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer sheep

Each figure is made according to a sophisticated design with skilled craftsmanship, so that the natural wood comes into its own perfectly. In the forestry used, the focus is on long-term sustainability and the protection of the natural environment. The colors are saliva-proof, not of animal origin and perfectly match the characteristic Ostheimer design. The transparent colors preserve the wood structure, making each piece unique. Organic oil protects the colors.
