Ostheimer Wooden Figures - Small Standing Bear

This inquisitive brown bear cub is standing upright with his paws hanging down and his eyes looking up. Has he spotted something tasty? This Waldorf-style Ostheimer bear cub is stained chocolate brown with eco water colours and beautifully hand-crafted, with a simple but stylish look. The grain of the wood shines through the chocolate brown stain, bringing children closer to nature. This bear has dots for eyes and a nose with no other markings and this pared back approach to details encourages children playing with this toy to fill in the gaps with their imaginations. Perfect for story sacks - Goldilocks, Jungle Book and more - and for enjoying with other woodland animals in an Ostheimer collection.

This Waldorf figure has been expertly hand crafted from sustainable, solid hard wood and is smooth, warm and tactile in children's hands. Hand-made in Germany, each figure is beautifully unique.

• Suitable for children over 3 years.
