Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer Shepherd's Little Boy

The transparent colors preserve the wood structure, making each piece unique. Biological oil protects the colors. The colors are saliva-proof, not of animal origin and exactly match the characteristic Ostheimer design. Each figurine is handcrafted with precision according to a defined pattern, which gives the wood its unique appearance. In the forestry used, the focus is on long-term sustainability and the protection of the natural Environment.

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