Key features & specs

How it compares

Unlike standard plastic teething rings, the combination of hard wood and soft silicone provides two distinct densities for a baby to choose from. When compared to purely wooden rattles or standard silicone-only jewelry, this hybrid design stands out for its versatility. The use of FSC-certified wood ensures a lower carbon footprint than mass-produced petroleum-based alternatives found at big-box retailers.

What to know before buying

1. Inspect the wood regularly for any signs of splintering or wear.
2. Clean the silicone portion with mild soap and warm water.
3. Do not submerge the wooden ring in water to prevent cracking.
4. Re-treat the hardwood with organic coconut oil or beeswax-alternative if it becomes dry.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Finn + Emma Wood + Silicone Teether worth it?

Yes, its dual-material construction makes it highly durable and more versatile than single-material teethers. It serves as both a toy and a medical aid during teething phases.

How do you clean the Finn + Emma teether safely?

Wipe the wood with a damp cloth and wash the silicone with warm, soapy water. Never put the wooden components in the dishwasher or microwave, as high heat will damage the integrity of the hardwood.

How does it compare to 100% silicone teethers?

The hardwood component offers a firm resistance that silicone cannot provide, which is often preferred by babies when their teeth are actually emerging. It also provides a natural aesthetic and tactile experience for sensory development.

Is the wood used in this teether safe for babies to chew?

Absolutely, the wood is untreated Indian hardwood finished with non-toxic vegetable seed wax. It is naturally antibacterial and does not contain the chemicals found in many processed plastic toys.
