HEVEA Star & Moon Natural Rubber Pacifier
One-piece 100% natural rubber pacifier with star- and moon-shaped vent holes - nipple and shield are one continuous rubber part, no plastic and no silicone.
The verdict: Plastic-free
Like the Natursutten, this is a single molded piece of 100% natural rubber from Hevea brasiliensis - the anatomical nipple, the butterfly face shield, and the ventilation holes (the star and moon cutouts) are all one continuous rubber piece, with no plastic ring or shield and no silicone. Fully plastic-free and silicone-free; the only caveat is the latex-allergy risk that comes with any natural rubber.
Verification: Manufacturer confirmed
