Carved from solid ash wood. Finished with olive oil. Water-based, non-toxic paint. No plastic components. EN71 certified.

Cartoon safari figurines are ideal for younger children discovering the animal kingdom for the first time. The bold colours and expressive designs make identification easy and immediate — this is an elephant, this is a giraffe — building vocabulary and early natural world knowledge through play.

Solid ash wood. Hand-painted with water-based, non-toxic paints in multiple layers. Finished with olive oil. No plastic components. Made in conformity with the European toy safety standard EN 71. Small variations in colour and grain are a natural characteristic of handmade production — not defects. Each piece is unique.

For toddlers and young children, cartoon animal figurines serve as the first introduction to wildlife — the bold forms and expressive colours create immediate recognition and connection. Children who can name a giraffe and a rhinoceros in play are building the vocabulary and curiosity that will serve them in every science classroom they enter. The wooden format means they can hold, examine and compare the figures — building spatial and comparative thinking alongside animal knowledge.
