About Nanchen:
Nanchen Dolls have been lovingly stitched in a small town just outside of Kassel, Germany, since 1983. The dolls are made from materials that are sourced from strictly organic cultivation and organic farming. The faces are individually hand-painted, giving each doll its own unique character.In addition to being snuggly and cute, Nanchen dolls meet strict safety and environmental standards. In 2012 Nanchen was purchased from the original owners, by two enterprising young women (Janah von Buttlar and Juliane Krueger) who as children played with Nanchen dolls. Since 1983, Nanchen dolls have been caringly handmade and hand-painted in north Hesse. Founded by Nana and Peter Sendke as a small side project to their toy shop, the manufactory quickly developed into something bigger.
Note from Nanchen:
We manufacture dolls, rattles and toy animals from high-quality natural materials.
In our manufactory in Kassel along with 15 great employees, we transform Bioland virgin sheep's wool, organic cotton and plant-dyed silk into over 200 different Nanchen models. Our employees have unusual job titles such as "face painter", "inner head roller", "doll doctor" or "wig crocheter".
We are all united by our love of handicraft and the joy of high-quality materials.

Care Instructions for Nanchen Dolls
If your wool filled doll gets dirty, you can first remove the coarse dirt with a brush. Since Nanchen only uses the best quality natural fibers (no polyester), heavy washing is usually not necessary.The pure sheep's wool filling is a natural fiber that can shrink, mat, or clump if exposed to hot water, harsh detergent, or strong spinning.
Light Cleaning:
- Brush off coarse dirt gently.
Washing (if necessary):
- Hand wash only
- Use lukewarm water (comfortable to touch)
- Use mild or wool-specific detergent
- Avoid hot water, harsh detergents, and spinning
Washing Process:
- Soak in clear water first
- Add a small amount of mild detergent and gently move the toy in the water
- Do not rub, brush, spin, or wring
Drying:
- Squeeze out excess water gently
- Lay flat on an absorbent towel
- Reshape and move occasionally while drying
- Wet wool smell will disappear after drying
