Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer St. Bernard

The paints used are saliva-safe, free from animal ingredients and perfectly matched to the typical Ostheimer design. The biological oil protects the colors from wear and tear. Transparent colors allow the individual wood grain to shine through and make each product unique. Each figurine is lovingly handcrafted according to a set pattern, with the focus on the natural texture of the wood. The use of wood from sustainable forestry ensures a balance between the use of resources and conservation.

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