Wooden animal - Bremen dog

The Bremen dog by Ostheimer is a beautiful wooden animal to play with, either alone or with other Ostheimer figures. This wooden toy immerses every child in a world of imagination. Complement your collection of Ostheimer figures with other dolls and animals. This timeless wooden toy is inspired by Waldorf education, which prefers high-quality natural materials and uncluttered toys to let creativity and imagination run wild.

This dog comes straight from the fairy tale of the Bremen Town Musicians: deemed too old for work, he sets off with the donkey, the cat, and the rooster to make music. In the story, they climb on each other's backs to form a tall tower, which is the most fun game to play with these figures. The dog is 7 cm tall and stands firmly on his legs, so he can easily hold the rooster on his back.

Each figurine is handmade in Germany, using wood from sustainable domestic forestry. Every doll from the Ostheimer collection is a unique piece made with great love and care. The water-based colors are slightly transparent to highlight the wood grain; the play figures are not finished with varnish to keep the beauty of the wood visible. The unpainted figures are oiled with vegetable oil from organic farming.

At Ostheimer, they make toys that stimulate children's imagination and nurture their creativity. Of course, we at In den Olifant are big fans of this! The passion with which Ostheimer handcrafts open-ended toys has been a beacon of craftsmanship for over eighty years. Combine the Bremen dog with the Bremen donkey, the Bremen rooster, and other Ostheimer play figures to create an imaginative play world for your children.
