If you’ve perused the plethora of beautiful mohair bears in our Steiff cabinet, you may have wondered, “What’s up with the Andy Warhol bear?”  The face adorning this animal commemorates Margarete Steiff, who started the Steiff company in 1897.  In 1902, Steiff company became famous for creating the first upright jointed bears.

Come see our bears and the rest of our wonderful Steiff menagerie.  We have over 150 pieces.  Steiff animals are made of genuine mohair, which is long-lasting and stands up better than other materials.  Most synthetic animal hair imitates mohair.  Each animal has the trademark “Knopf im Ohr”  (Button in Ear) which marks authenticity.  A white tag indicates a limited edition piece, which will come with an official box or bag.  Animals with yellow tags are not limited edition, but they tend to be in production for only a year or two.  We also have Steiff North American Exclusives which can be found only in – you guessed it – North America.

When buying a stuffed animal, consider Steiff – beautiful, durable, and collectible.  Margerete’s Steiff company motto says: “Only the best is good enough for children”.
