Ostheimer Wooden Figures – Small Sea Lion

Looking out towards the water, this Ostheimer sea lion pup is getting ready to swim with its family, or perhaps having a snooze after a successful swimming lesson. The gorgeous wood grain imitates the look of a waterproof coat. 2cm high.

Children will love splishing and splashing this young small sea lion in and out of the water. Crafted in the Waldorf style, it will lend itself to a host of scenarios and story sacks, with its highly tactile material inviting children to hold and play with it. The gorgeous curves and handcrafted wood make it delightful for small hands to hold. Add other Ostheimer sea lion pups and an adult sea lion to create a whole sea lion family.

Its whiskers, large eyes, black nose, flippers and the purple-grey shade of non-toxic paint chosen immediately identify this water-loving animal.

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.
• Made from sustainable hard wood, painted with non-toxic water based colour stain and organic oils.

Ostheimer have been making Waldorf wooden figures for generations with a desire to craft toys that inspire children to play freely and explore the world with all their senses. Each Ostheimer wooden figure is made in the traditional way by hand at every stage, sawn, sanded, painted and oiled. With these figures children can create imaginary worlds re-enacting scenes from their own experiences or conjuring fanciful worlds filled with exotic creatures and tales of wonder. All Ostheimer toys are made from local sustainable hardwood, painted with safe transparent paint and finished in organic oil to ensure a connection with nature and respect for the environment. Ostheimer are considered the quintessential maker of Waldorf wooden figures, their range is extensive so there is something for everyone.
