Steiff's Limpy Teddy bear made of finest chestnut mohair fully jointed and surface washable

"What if," a Steiff designer wondered, "it was possible to tie-dye mohair, the way you tie-dye a t-shirt? What effect would you achieve?" For the answer, look no further than Limpy, another of our designer Teddy bears in the 2010 collection. Steiff Schulte artisans very eagerly accepted the challenge of creating this entirely new type of mohair coloring. The result is another first for Steiff. The tow- tone effect is an ever-changing, swirling mix of brown and blond. a feature that makes no two Teddy bears exactly alike! But the mohair isn't the only unique aspect of this unusual Teddy bear, he has a completely re-styled face, with a cream-colored mohair complexion accented by apricot and black airbrushing. the tread of his nose is lightly waxed. an the insides of his ears are sewn with a longer pile cream mohair to accent his face, with his broad smile and sparkling eyes, he's a very contented Teddy bear - just waiting to bring some happiness to your collection - and your home.

Llimited edition of 2,010 pieces worldwide and bearing the gold-plated "button in ear" and red and white label exclusive to Steiff Limited Editions.
