Steiff Teddy Bears are extremely collectible and are considered
to be one of the best teddy bear brands available. Steiff
is named after Margarete Steiff who founded the company and
to some extent the entire teddy bear industry. She was a disabled
seamstress who believed that only the best was good enough
for children. This company motto has endured since 1902 and
Steiff are still recognised for their quality of workmanship
and for their patented "button in ear" system of
identification.
