Running Fox by Ostheimer is a beautiful wooden toy and immerses every child in a world of imagination. Complement your collection of Ostheimer figures with other figurines. 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 fox is carved in motion: low to the ground, with its snout forward and its tail stretched out behind it. This makes it immediately clear where it is going, making it a grateful opponent for the chickens and the hare. In forest play, the fox is rarely a figure that stands still.
Each figure is handmade in Germany, using wood from sustainable domestic forestry. Every figurine from the Ostheimer collection is a unique piece made with great love and care. The water-based paints are slightly transparent to emphasize 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 are big fans of that at In den Olifant! The passion with which Ostheimer handcrafts open-ended toys has been a beacon of craftsmanship for over eighty years. Combine the running fox with the small foxes, the trees, and other Ostheimer play figures to create an imaginative play world for your children.
