P> Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791)

He was brilliant like no other composer. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was one of the world’s greatest composers. Along with Haydn and Beethoven he was one of the leading composers of the Vienna classical period and began composing music at the age of five. His music embodies a mysterious magic. His works includes all realms of music e.g. chamber music, symphonies, operas as well as church music. His best known sacred work is the Requiem which he began in the last year of his life and left unfinished. Mozart is said to have thought a great deal about his own death while working on this piece. Other works he is remembered for is the opera “The Magic Flute” and his orchestral work for a piano entitled “Die kleine Nachtmusik” – “The little Night Music”. He composed his “Little Night Music” already as a young boy at the age of six. Mozart passed away as a young man at the age of 35. Like many other great composers, Mozart died as a poor man.

Teddy Bears stuffed with excelsior – a true treasure

Teddy Bears stuffed with excelsior belong to the rarity treasure of the Teddy Bear world and are only rarely offered on the collector’s market today. What used to be the daily work of the Teddy Bear makers in former times, has become a valuable and rare treasure today. Worldwide there are only a handful of experts who are still familiar with the traditonal art of excelsior stuffing. Years of training, muscle strength and an artistic sense for styling are necessary to carry out this very time-consuming work. Only very old and long-standing manufactures have still the knowledge today, how Teddy Bears can be stuffed with excelsior according to old example, so that nowadays excelsior stuffed Teddy Bears are hardly to find.

For almost 100 years, we have cultivated the tradition of stuffing our Teddy Bears with excelsior and we have preserved for us this knowledge untill today. This gives our Teddy Bears their exceptional value and makes them to uncomparable and unique creatures with value-preserving character.

Mohiar, finest Material for Teddybears

Mohair is made from one of nature`s finest sources for natural fiber, the Angora goat. This special fur is very long and naturally wavy. When sheared (this usually occurs twice a year) it is called mohair. The term "mohair" is derived from the Arabian word "Muhayar" which literally means "the fabric of goat hair". Despite the name similarity there is no relation to the Angora rabbit.

The collection of this noble hair does not require any animals to be harmed!

Angora goats are a delicate animal and are very sensitive to temperature change. This requires a dependable mild climate. Summers not so hot that the meadows dry out and winters not too cold. In the entire world there are only three regions that consistently meet these ideal conditions: Texas, USA, South Africa and Turkey.

The fur of the Angora go at is naturally white, curly and shiny. Its fibers have a remarkable strength when made into a pile fabric. These characteristics together with the noble appearance, silky feel and sheen make mohair one of the finest fibers offered by nature.
