Boyds Bears Esmerelda Castaspell with Spidey is Back in Stock
The very popular Boyds Bears Halloween bear, Esmerelda Castaspell with Spidey, is now back in stock. We felt quite lucky to be able to get some of these additional bears as Boyds by Enesco had told us that our order had been put on a waiting list.
Esmerelda Castaspell is an incredible 18-inch brown witch bear that has quite the elaborate Halloween outfit. She wears a skirt of double metallic purple netted fabric with sheer purple overlay embellished with black velour spider web embroidery. Her dress is made of a Halloween orange and black plaid with black satin inset on the bodice with purple ribbon. Of course, Esmerelda wears a black satin witch's hat with fabric rosettes, netting, and faux feathers.
She holds Spidey, the spider in her bear paw and his body is made of black glitter fabric with black and orange felt legs.
This adorable bear is perfect for our upcoming Halloween (which is on a Saturday this year by the way), and a must for Boyds Bears collectors.

Kringle The Christmas Stocking Bear, 2009 Steiff Bears Swarovski Bear
We have just received word that Steiff Bears has debuted their usual yearly Christmas Swarovski bear and this year it is named Kringle, the Christmas Stocking Bear. We are not quite sure when these magnificent bears will be arriving but please let us know if you are interested in us putting one to the side for you. Either we can give you a call or send you an email when they have arrived. MSRP is expected in the $300 range.
Verbiage about Kringle, the Christmas Stocking Bear that we have received from Steiff is as follows:
"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 slright 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 airbrushings, almost like a sprinkling of cinnamon. Around his heck, 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 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."

Madame Alexander Doll Seven Year Itch Marilyn Monroe
Marilyn Monroe has the mystique and staying power to fans even to this day. Madame Alexander Dolls pays tribute to this famous actress in their recent introduction of Seven Year Itch Marilyn Monroe doll (50180).
She wears the signature white halter sleeveless dress from the 1955 movie 'The Seven Year Itch'. This dress has a wired skirt so it can be posed into the same signature pose from the movie.
In this movie it has been said that Marilyn Monroe's image as a sex goddess too often overshadowed her talent as a fine comic actress. She was completely irresistible, and very good in this movie.

Steiff Bears Acquisition of Schulte Mohair
Schulte Mohair, known for producing some of the best mohair in the world, has been at the heart and soul of the teddy bear industry since 1903. This particular year marked the beginning of the long-lasting relationship between Schulte and Steiff Bears. (Incidentally, Steiff recently acquired Schulte).
Reinhardt Schulte's factory opened back in 1901 and even to this day, this company still resides in the same building in Duiberg, Germany. Contained within this building is the weaving mill, dye shop, quality control, and finishing department.
Mohair comes from the angora goat through a shearing process (like sheep) that never harms the angora goats.
Mohair fleece has always been the ultimate fabric for making teddy bears. There are several reasons for this: 1) mohair has an incredible luster to it, and dyed mohair resists fading caused by time and the elements and is very hard wearing; 2) mohair is almost non-flammable; 3) mohair is considered the most durable animal fiber; 4) the natural fibers from mohair have the ability to absorb and release atmospheric moisture; 5) mohair is characteristically resistant to soiling; and 6) mohair possesses great tensile strength. Diameter to diameter it is stronger than steel!
Artists and manufacturers world-wide cite the magnificent quality, variety and durability of the Schulte mohair when designing their wonderful creations.
Steiff Bears, as well as the mohair Charlie Bears, are crafted from Schulte mohair.
