Steiff is the inventor of the teddy bear and the world‘s most famous soft toy company

For over 140 years, Steiff has been the epitome of the highest quality, first-class materials, perfect design and highest safety standards.

When their founder, Margarete Steiff, made the Elefäntle pincushion in 1880, she saw how the little felt elephant instantly won the affection of children and became their favourite cuddly toy. Designing and creating wonderful toys for children was the basis of her lifelong ideology and remains to this day.

Her guiding principle "Only the best is good enough for children". is still their company philosophy today, and shapes their work as well as each of their products that leave their production facilities.

In 1902, Margarete's nephew Richard invented the first jointed bear, which soon adopted it‘s world-famous name "Teddy bear" inspired by Theodore Roosevelt and brought their Steiff brand its international breakthrough.

Today, Steiff delights and enchants all over the world, from the USA throughout Europe especially Germany and Great Britain to Asia and China and Japan. In total over 50 countries worldwide.
