Teddy Bear with Little Felt Elephant - Steiff - Traditional

£225.00

Irresistible classic Steiff traditional teddy bear with little felt elephant.

 When Margarete Steiff created her first little elephant in her workshop she ushered in a new era of children’s toys. She paved the way for a global phenomenon. Now, over 140 years later, her family are still creating friends for life.

As well as being invitingly cuddly, bears act as companions, comforters and a constant source of ideas.

All of the anniversary toys come in a limited edition of 1,880. They ‘bear’ the special elephant logo “140 years of Steiff”.

Back when the “Elefäntle” paved the way for the first ever toy factory, its “big brother” had yet to arrive on the scene. However, it was not long before Richard Steiff introduced the teddy bear that would go on to attain unimaginable levels of success.  

Since then, millions of friends for life have made the journey from the Swabian town of Giengen to new homes all over the world. They live their own personal stories and create lasting memories. They are loved, cherished, occasional forgotten, found again, collected and inherited.

Limited Edition of 1880 pieces worldwide.
