A company to be respected for inventing the teddy bear, over a hundred years ago in 1902, and for their reputation for producing high quality bears. They are known for their trademark - "Button in the Ear Tags" and the immortal words of the inventor, Margarete Steiff, "Only the best is good enough for our children."
Whenever a bear has fetched a record price at auction, it has always been a Steiff. They are, without doubt, the most collected bears available and continue to produce superb limited edition pieces, classic unlimited bears and an excellent range of childrens' teddies and "baby safe" products.
