Collectable Dean's Bears Made From Goats And Alpacas!
Since the late 1980s when the company was bought by Neil and Barbara Miller, Dean"s Bears have found themselves a special niche in the teddy bear world.÷ The bears produced today are of a traditional style made with the finest quality materials. ÷The bears are all fully jointed - which means their arms, legs and head move with traditional cotter-pin joints.÷ The soft fur is made from two different natural materials; mohair is the more often-used material for Dean"s bears - it comes from angora goats and is a much finer and stronger fibre than sheep"s wool, with a beautiful sheen that can also be dyed very successfully.÷ The second quality material used for Dean"s teddy bears is alpaca.÷ Alpacas are related to llamas but bred primarily for their excellent fibres.
The teddy bears produced by Dean"s Bears today are beautifully-detailed, strictly limited edition pieces.÷ Limitations vary from just 30 to a maximum of 100 which means that many bears sell out quickly after their first appearance in Dean"s Bears" catalogue and on the website.÷ Most bears are designed by the Miller family, with a few exceptions which are designed by carefully-selected teddy bear artists with distinctive styles. ÷
Dean"s Bears have established themselves over many decades as the first and finest British manufacturer of teddy bears.÷ Their bears are sold worldwide and special editions produced, from time to time, for the international teddy bear markets of Japan and the USA.÷ Dean"s Bears fans can join the collector"s club and receive a special edition annual bear, badge and club newsletters.÷ Dean"s Bears are highly prized and collected worldwide - the company proudly boasts one of the largest teddy bear collectors clubs in the world - confirmation of their status as one of the best-loved teddy bear brands ever!
