Steiff Mohair 2004 "Baerle" 43 PAB Replica 1904 EAN 404153. Baerle 43 PAB is a 43 cm tall when seated, 60 cm when standing and crafted by hand in the traditional, artistic manner. He is a true and accurate replica in many ways. The mohair has been exactly reproduced after the original. He is softly stuffed with wooden shavings and his limbs are jointed a little bit loose to give him the true feeling of being a well beloved, vintage Teddy bear. Just as the original, Baerle 43 PAB has wooden shoe-button eyes;shaved muzzle, his mouth, nose and the four claws on each of his paws are carefully stitched by hand. He proudly wears a true elephant button made of stainless steel, which makes him a very special piece. The replica's ear tag couldn't be stitched to his left ear, as at that time Steiff products didn't have ear tags yet. This is why it is sewn into the side seam under his left arm. It is actually the first time in the company history that this has been done! Baele is loosely 5 way jointed to give him that loved feeling, and surface washable. His edition size was limited until the end of 2004. He comes with a Steiff decorative box and outer carton.
