Highlights

Made by AnthroposophicalToys
Materials: wool, felt, Merino, Merino wool, dyed wool, natural wool, natural felt, organic, pure wool, pure felt, pure, DMC thread, cotton thread

This composition is made only from the best natural materials: Externally both swans are 100% wool felt, and their filling is 100% natural Merino sheep wool. The dolls are washable, bendable and come with their own icy lake (5.51'' long and 9.4'' wide), also made from 100% natural wool by felting. Both swans are 4.9'' tall and 5.3'' long (including the bill). Sewn with high quality and durable DMC cotton thread (made in France). All cotton threads are the same color as the felt exterior (except for the eyes which are made with black thread) and blend seamlessly with the dolls. All dyes used are natural and Eco-friendly.
The composition is suitable for children of all ages. The woolen stuffing is very dense, making the dolls soft on the outside, but structurally firm - like a felt sculpture.

Woolen dolls can be washed by hand in lukewarm water, then left to dry in the shade on a towel. Alternatively you could clean it using a wet tissue.

This loving pair of swans is great for children, a birthday present, a wedding gift or house decoration. It is made in the anthroposophical (Waldorf) tradition that puts the child’s imagination at its center. These dolls are excellently suited for play as they bend well, can be washed to keep them clean and safe from germs and can be equipped with extra accessories (not counting the lake that comes with the composition). The bills are sewn so well that kids can pull and tear at them without fear of the bills coming off.
When making the lake I used turquoise, peach, blue and purple dyes. Their blend gives the lake a feeling of movement, depth, softness and gentleness. The purpose was to make a composition that soothes and calms children.
Children get to see how swans look in nature and play with a family setting, while grownups can use it for house decoration, doll collection or as a pleasant gift for birthdays and holidays.

The basic, unpretentious features of the doll help children develop their imagination, free from external influence of the manufacturer. Anthroposophy is a holistic world view that claims that the best way for children to grow is to be immersed in a real, natural and organic environment, without the damaging effects of mass-produced one-size-fits-all synthetic products. With Waldorf dolls the child is the one that invents the story behind the dolls, as well as its emotions and character.

We only do express international shipping - while it increases shipping costs it also makes sure that you get your dolls as fast as possible and nothing gets lost in the mail.
If you wish to have the product in another color, size or with some custom feature, please tell me so. However, you should know that custom work will increase the processing time and may increase the shipping price (for large dolls).

Thank you for stopping by my shop! :)
