Halloween

Halloween is celebrated on October 31st . It is the night in which demons, sorcerers and witches appear. Children dress up in fearsome costumes and go “trick-or-treating” from house to house for candy. The genesis of Halloween goes back to the Celtic new year’s festival, which was celebrated on November 1st. The custom told, that during the night before the doors of the netherworld opened and the ghosts of the deceased entered the human world. In the 9th century the Christian Church changed this gentile celebration to the All Saint’s Day. The old custom however remained and became the Halloween festival. This is, why on this day children dress up as ghosts and walk through the streets to frighten the adults.

The symbol for Halloween is the jack-o-lantern, which is a pumpkin carved into a scary looking face with a lit candle inside. These can be found adorning many porches and walkways. The colors for Halloween are black and orange.

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.
