Ostheimer Wooden Figures - Gretel
This lovely wooden Gretel is perfect for making a story sack for the classic children's story, Hansel and Gretel - but she could be used for any story sack that needs a young girl, and she makes a great farmer for a set of wooden animals too.

She has been expertly hand crafted from sustainable, solid hard wood and is smooth, warm and tactile in children's hands - just add Hansel for reading adventures. Hand-made in Germany, each figure is beautifully unique.

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.
