For more than a century, the famous fabric mill Schulte has provided Steiff with superior quality mohair, alpaca, and fine woven fabrics for our Teddy bears and animals. After a long and productive relationship, the two companies have now joined forces. It is with great pleasure that we announce Steiff´s purchase of this legendary fabric mill – now known as “Steiff Schulte.” To celebrate this partnership, we´ve created a special Teddy bear that pays tribute to the creativity and innovation of both companies. It´s a first-of-its-kind patchwork bear that displays a small sampling of the thousands of fabrics that Schulte is able to create. Made from 11 swatches of mohair and alpaca (dense, sparse, new, distressed, straight, curly), each piece of fabric harmonizes beautifully to create an exceptionally appealing Teddy bear with real character. Join with us in commemorating this milestone event in the history of our company – add Reinhard, the Schulte Patchwork Teddy bear to your collection now.
