HolzWald Eagel Owl

The eagle owl is carved tall and upright at 8.1cm high, giving it an imposing, watchful posture that reads clearly as a large owl. Among the more low-slung farm animals it brings a vertical accent to a shelf or forest scene, standing like a nighttime sentry over the play world.

It measures 8.1cm high, 5cm long and 2.2cm wide, so it is taller than it is long. The base is carved flat and wide enough to keep the upright body steady on a table or shelf, so the owl holds its perched stance without toppling.

It fits woodland and forest settings, perched on a block branch or the edge of a play barn as the owl that keeps watch at night. Children often cast it as the wise bird of a story, and its size lets it preside over smaller woodland creatures.

It is shaped from a single piece of local wood, with the edges rounded and finely sanded for a smooth feel. The markings are applied with natural Biofa dyes and finished with oil, so the grain shows through and each owl's pattern differs slightly from the next.

It is handmade in a small Georgian workshop that has crafted wooden figures for over 35 years. The workshop uses local wood, finishes each piece by hand, and provides inclusive employment to members of the local community, including people with disabilities.

Yes. The whole owl is carved from one block of wood, with no beak or wings glued on separately to work loose. The surface is smooth and the corners softened, so it suits toddlers and older children who can safely handle a small figure with supervision.

Dust it with a dry cloth and use a barely damp cloth for marks, drying it right away. Keep it out of water and never machine wash it, and store it away from long direct sun so the natural colours stay even over time.
