A beary welcome to my website.

 

My name is Angela Meier and I live together with my husband and our dog in Buchholz (Westerwald) and I am a self employed bear maker and restorator.

My bears are made from german mohair or alpaca and occasionally I also use high quality faux fur. They are stuffed with sheep-wool, fibrefill and/or different kind of granulates.

 

All teddybears have traditional cotter pin joints to make them move. They have handmade german glass eyes and embroidered noses and claws. The realistic animals have a complete wire spine to make them move into almost every position and they have felted noses and modelled claws.

 

 I set great store on a perfectly finishing and also stuffing is done with great care, so the bear is able to cut a good figure even many decades later.  All teddies, bears and animals come with their very own "Baerenbaude"-Passport and my paw insignia.

 

Occasionally it happens that you see a special teddy and you know it must be this one, but unfortunately he was adopted. In this case please contact me, as some of my bears are allowed to have a brother or sister, but please keep in mind, that it will never turn out to be a "twin" and he will have his very own charactere and I think that makes every bear unique. For example please take a look at  "The Paulchen Gang" in my gallery - these bears have the same pattern but every single one of them is unique.

 

At last you probably asked yourself about the meaning of the name "Baerenbaude" ?  Well, this was coincidence. During a side-trip we stopped for a break at a "Baude" (shelter) and here I had the idea: a shelter for bears = "Bear Shelter = Baerenbaude".

 

Well, now I hope you will enjoy my website and if you have questions, please don´t hesitate to contact me.

 

Beary greetings,
Angela Meier
