beautifully handcrafted wooden figures with timeless appeal

Holztiger’s Waldorf-inspired figures are handcrafted in Europe from sustainably-harvested (PEFC-certified) maple and beech wood. The forms and decoration are deliberately simplified to better stimulate children's imaginations. After each figure is carefully cut and sanded, it is coloured with water-based stains and finishes that allow the beauty of the wood grain to show through. These figures have been a long time favorite with European parents and Waldorf educators but are now gaining greater international attention as wonderful alternatives to plastic toys. Holztiger highlights the natural beauty, feel and warmth of wood and these high quality figures will last for generations. With their unique colours and shapes, attention to detail and great feel, Holztiger animals and figures are sure to stimulate your child's imagination and encourage creative play. Children will love collecting these figures and telling new stories as they add to their collection.
