Steiff New in British Collection Limited Edition Collector's Teddy Bear 34cm

Our British Collectors’ Teddy bear is a traditional classic from ear to toe. This year, his tipped RMS mohair captivates with an exceptionally beautiful play of colour, which is harmoniously complemented by the double layered ribbon around his neck in matching colours. He proudly wears his British Collectors’ chest tag with the “Fabrikmarke” logo, the appeal of British Collectors’ Teddy bear 2024 is completed by his friendly face, his carefully hand-embroidered nose and gentle, dark eyes. He is a bear that is immensely proud to join the celebrated series known as the ‘Jewel in the Crown’ of the collectors’ world.

The Steiff Group is a sixth generation family business founded in 1880 by Margarete Steiff in Giengen an der Brenz. Margarete Steiff started manufacturing toys when she created the Elefäntle from a pattern she found in a fashion journal. The felt elephant, intended as a pincushion, soon became popular as a children's toy. The very first Steiff catalogue was published soon after, and shows not only elephants but also monkeys, donkeys, horses, camels, pigs, mice, dogs, cats, rabbits and giraffes. The Margarete Steiff felt goods factory was founded in Giengen, Germany in 1893 and Steiff manufacture remains in the same town to this day.
