Ostheimer Wooden Figures - Swimming Duck

This wooden duck has a flat bottom so as to create the illusion of swimming in a pond, or perhaps even nesting. Its wings are tucked away as it glides across the duck pond. Add a couple of ducklings for a family outing! 4cm high.

With its yellow beak and a few blue feathers, the Ostheimer artist has picked out just a few, but crucial, details to identify this as a duck. This Waldorf duck is the perfect size for little hands, and children will love quacking and swimming the duck across the pond, bobbing its tail in the air and meeting its friends for a group swim.

The natural wood grain is the perfect material for creating the look of feathers, and has been handpainted to enhance its natural look. 

• Suitable for children over 3 years.
