Cindy and John, The Life and Times of Cindy and John, Teddy Bears Extraordinaire is alive! After months of having this domain name to do something with, we finally kicked our furry bear hineys and built this adorable blog during the night. Adorable teddy bears surely must have an adorable teddy bear blog. It’s some kind of a teddy bear rule.

Here’s a cute and adorable teddy bear that wants to be adopted. Did I mention we run a teddy bear adoption service? No? Hey guess what!! We run a teddy bear adoption service…


Mohair Teddy Bear with Hot Water Bottle 1908 Replica Plush

Mohair Teddy Bear with Hot Water Bottle 1908 Replica Plush

This Teddy bear can tell a truly eventful story: In 1906, an extremely harsh winter fell on the city of Berlin and covered it in snow – and as we all know, necessity is the mother of invention, a Teddy bear was converted into a holder for a hot-water bottle in order to bring a little warmth into the cold days with extremely low temperatures. In March 1907, this hot-water bottle bear, in whose tummy a hot-water bottle made of metal was hidden that could be filled with hot water, was entered by Steiff as a registered design. The friendly Teddy bear with the wide open, boot-button eyes that look out into the world has a friendly as well as pragmatic nature and is made of light brown mohair and stuffed with wood shavings. On the inside – where the hot-water bottle is found – he has a lining made of felted wool. Whereas this special Teddy bear was produced in 2001 with a size of 50 centimeters, the replicas of this edition have an impressive size of 58 centimeters in a Limited Edition of 1,908 pieces. Each of these “warm-hearted” bears also “bears” the Steiff underscored “Button-in Ear” made of patinated steel. Limited edition of 1,908 pieces.
