Hermann-Spielwaren

Hand-made art bears from Germany since 1913.

Art bears with famous faces

Hermann-Spielwaren is a prestigious manufacturer of teddy bears with a history dating back to 1913. They produce exclusive hand-made art bears in Germany for collectors, often in limited editions.

Their speciality: teddy versions of famous personalities, with highly detailed clothing and accessories that make each bear a small character study.

Every bear a small work of art, made by hand in Germany.
