Ostheimer raccoons are real playful creatures! On the one hand, they're very popular because of their beautiful coat pattern, but their cute faces also make them irresistible. On the other hand, no one really wants them as neighbors because they're so smart, curious, and dexterous that they can easily find their way into buildings even when uninvited.
Look: when this little rascal sits down and turns around, he can use his nimble little hands freely!
Each Ostheimer figurine is handmade in Germany using wood from sustainable domestic forestry . Each wooden animal in the Ostheimer collection is a unique piece, crafted with love and care. The water-based colors are slightly transparent to emphasize the wood grain, and the figurines are not varnished to preserve the beauty of the wood. The unvarnished figurines are oiled with organic vegetable oil.
At Ostheimer, they make toys that stimulate children's imaginations and nurture their creativity. We're certainly 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 Bremen Rooster with other Ostheimer figurines to create an imaginative play world for your children.
