Nanchen Natur

Nanchen Natur was founded by Nana and Peter Sendke back in 1983. Today, in a small village workshop in the middle of Germany, a team of 15 artisans continue their legacy, hand crafting a beautiful range of dolls, soft toys, baby rattles and comforters using traditional European handiwork techniques, with meticulous attention to detail, respect for nature and love for children.

Only the finest natural materials are used, including certified organic fabrics and plant dyed silks; non-toxic, hypoallergenic, and completely safe for children.

Nanchen dolls are stuffed by hand with Bioland certified organic sheep's wool from Germany. Their beautiful faces are then individually hand-painted, making each one unique - just like us!

Nanchen Care Guide and FAQ's

Washing your Nanchen Friend

Hand washing is best and when washing, please note that Nanchen dolls are filled with sheep's wool. These natural fibers shrink and mat at temperatures that are too hot or if you use too harsh detergent. Please use wool detergent and do not rub, brush, spin or wring. After washing, squeeze carefully and leave to dry on an absorbent terry cloth towel.

How do I care for the Doll's hair?

The hair is made of high-quality mohair fibers. To style it, you can simply use a hairbrush.

Which Dolls are suitable for Infants?

All our Rattles and Comforters are suitable for infants. We do recommend that dolls with hair are not used by children under 36 months. This is because hair and small parts can be swallowed.
