Sometimes creativity arises from adversity. At the end of World War I, Steiff was faced with a lack of wool and similar plush materials. Always innovative, the company found ways to produce bears and animals with a substitute paper-based material from 1919 through 1921.
This fabric made a comeback in 2010 with a special replica exclusively for Steiff Club members. Using this rediscovered technology, a new "Paper Teddy bear" is now being introduced in brilliant snow white.
It's a first-of-its-kind treasure that's sure to make the hearts of collectors beat faster. Join the excitement as we make history once again with our Paper Teddy bear.
5-way jointed, head is loosely attached to the body, with Safety eyes and stuffed with synthetic filling, and with gold-plated "Button in Ear" with elephant motif and Surface Washable.
This Bear is part of Steiff's 2014 Exclusive range.
Comes in a presentation box with certificate.
