Steiff Teddy bears for collectors and for play

|
The Teddy bear 1908, is 50 cm in size, 5-way jointed, has a growler, wooden eyes, head and arms are loosely attached to the body, stuffed with wood shavings, made from light cinnamon colored mohair and is limited to 1000 pieces.
A decade ago, a very special Teddy bear was offered for sale at London's most prestigious auction house. Since it was expected to be one of the most desirable items in the sale, the Teddy bear was featured on the cover of the widely distributed auction catalogue. In Giengen, a Steiff designer was captivated by the image of the bear. "Wouldn't this make a wonderful replica?" he wondered. As the years passed, the designer often recalled the beauty of that special Teddy bear.
After 10 years of waiting, the time has finally come to present this unique bear to other Steiff collectors. It was originally designed in 1908 and is now available as an exact replica of the original. The most unique aspect is the elaborate plush developed by Steiff Schulte. Salmon-colored mohair with gently faded tips and a cinnamon-colored cotton back lend this unique Teddy bear a wonderful sense of color. The nose is hand-stitched. A period-style "underscored" button completes this exceptional vintage design.
This Teddy comes in a box with a certificate of authenticity.
