Steiff Paddy teddy bear yellow 35cm

A soft toy as a toy? An era of play... In 1880, the first elephant sold as a toy from the workshop of Margarete Steiff marked the birth of plush toys worldwide. The moment gave rise to countless children's dreams: the animals became the centre of children's fantasies. They invite cuddles, act as companions, comforters and sources of inspiration. Since then, millions of friends for life have travelled the world from Giengen an der Brenz. They tell personal stories and create lasting memories. They are loved, cherished, sometimes forgotten, rediscovered, collected and inherited. We are celebrating this anniversary in 2020 with the 140th anniversary collection: all of its representatives bear the special Elefäntle logo "140 years of Steiff". It was, is and always will be the classic par excellence. The classic par excellence is and remains the much-loved teddy bear. Here he is represented by the particularly handsome Paddy. He is a proud 35 cm tall and made from the finest mohair. Of course, he has the typical blond colour. Only his chest insert is in white. Paddy is 5-way jointed so that he can assume different positions. His soles and paws are made of felt. He makes a particularly attentive impression. This is further emphasised by the black nose and mouth. Paddy Teddy bear represents the many generations of his kind, especially through the use of the finest materials and particularly good workmanship. He will bring great joy to every recipient and will certainly be given a place of honour straight away. It will make every collector's heart beat faster.
