| In the grand tradition of Steiff bears with
Swarovski accessories comes Kringle, an all-new
Teddy personality created exclusively
to celebrate the holidays.
Standing 10 inches tall, Kringle's slightly curly German mohair is the festive color of a freshly baked Christmas cookie. On the edges of his paw pads, there's a hint of airbrushing, almost like a sprinkling of cinnamon. Around his neck, Kringle wears a genuine Swarovski crystal ornament -- a red and white Santa boot that's sure to add glitz and glitter
to your holiday decorating.
In his ear, as a finishing touch,
Kringle sports a radiant Swarovski Xillion(TM) stone
that will sparkle brilliantly as it reflects your holiday lights.
There's no better way to celebrate the season than with Kringle -- a new Christmas classic from Steiff.

The original comical canine character was created by the English illustrator, G.E. Studdy, and was "born" in the 20s at the Steiff Company. An original from the year 1927 achieved the highest bid ever placed at an auction during the Steiff Festival that was made for a "Non-Teddy" by Steiff.
Today's "Bonzo" has been painted as a wonderful
replica by skilled hands with pen and iron gall ink.
His stocky body made of cotton velvet has been
stuffed by hand with kapok fibres.
Our four-legged friend looks out at the world with his light-blue glass eyes that have a zest for action. Made of finest cotton velvet, beige, jointed, surface washable, with glass eyes, with "underscored button" made of patinated steel.
