Ostheimer's Witch is a wonderful addition to your child's collection of wooden play figures and immerses us all in the world of imagination. This timeless wooden toy is inspired by Waldorf education, which prefers high-quality natural materials and simple toys to allow creativity and imagination to flourish.
The witch is 12.6 cm tall and wears a long cloak with a pointed hat. In fairy tales, she is rarely just scary: she lives deep in the forest, knows about herbs, and provides excitement in the story. Precisely because her face is not fully detailed, your child can decide for themselves whether she is dangerous or actually quite nice.
Each figure is handcrafted 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 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 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 witch with the dwarves, trees, and other Ostheimer play figures to create an imaginative play world for your children.
