Famous Teddy Bear Brands
Why are brands so important to our daily life? We do buy branded products all the time. Not just luxuries products but even our daily bread is branded. Why do we buy a particular product over another one?
There are lots of reasons, taste, look, feel or identification with the brand value of a certain product. This is not so different when we buy a Teddy Bear. The intention could be to buy the highest quality of product, the softest or the safest. If we are happy and satisfied with a certain brand and what that brand stands for we are more likely to buy from them again.
We just like to introduce you to a few famous Teddy Bear Brands we love ourselves.
The most famous of Teddy Bears, highly sort after and collectable for people worldwide are the Steiff Teddy Bears from Germany. All Mohair, jointed teddy bears have their own market for serious collectors. Steiff Teddy Bears have the longest tradition of teddy bear making and creating the first ever teddy bear in 1902. Isn’t it amazing that at the end of the 18 century, a woman started a company that will become one of the largest teddy bear companies in the world. Margarete Steiff was confined to a wheelchair due to polio but it did not stop her to be creative and innovative.
Today the Steiff brand, Steiff button in the ear, a worldwide trademark still stands for highest quality, collectable value and traditional entrepreneurial spirit.
We love Steiff Teddy Bears because they are quality at its finest. At Bear Essentials we offer a huge selection of these wonderful bears. For new born babies we have a selection of My First Steiff, an opportunity for new parents, grandparents, uncles and aunts to purchase for their new bundles of joy. A keepsake that will last forever. Margarete Steiff motto “Just the best is good enough for our children” is still the motto of the Steiff Company in the 21st century.
Bukowski Design is another famous brand that started business in 1990 in Sweden. Barbara Bukowski started to make Teddy Bears for her two sons, and gathered her inspiration from the older German teddy bears designed by Margarette Steiff. Bukowski Teddy Bears have a unique design process that is shown in every product. Each design is based on a real human being which makes them more lifelike.
Bukowski Teddy Bears are all made of completely new non recycled materials and are all tested to CE regulations. All teddy bears are washable, flameproofed and have plastic eyes double locked, so also safe for younger children.
We love these bears because they are all so very soft, hand embroidered and have a real human quality about them, and will owning one you will have a friend for life.

Hansa Creation was founded in 1972, by veteran Hans Axthelm, known worldwide for incredibly realistic, beautifully crafted plush animals. This ethical company with its ethos of educating children and adults, opposes child labour and sub-standard work practises. Children and collectors alike love his wildlife collection and many are used in zoos, photo shoots, parks to name a few. Attention to every detail, each animal is crafted according to its own natural habitat. Hansa even creates animals that are already extinct.
Each animal has a toy teach tag, describing the animals life cycle. Making animals from 4 inches to 4 metres, they are structured to stay standing, which makes for great features in any home or shop display. Hansa Creations are manufactured in the Philippines.
We adore Hansa animals because they educate. They are great fun and so lifelike. Many of the larger items have a lightweight steel frame, enabling small children to sit on it.
