INTRODUCTION

For several years our designer team has been studying real life animals intensively in order to design our plush animals as life-like as possible. Particularly Annekatrin Mehlan observes, draws and photographs animals in the zoo every week. Several trips to large national parks gave her the possibility also to observe animals in their natural habitat: black bears in Canada, lions in Kenya, orangutans on Sumatra, rhinoceroses in Namibia and many others. This intensive experience and learning in the wild is the basis for grasping the nature of animals and to express it in our life-like plush animals.

Over the past few years, the abilities of our cutters, seamstresses and trimsters have improved enormously. New technologies were tested, proven ones have been perfected. The craftsmanship of creating our animals keeps getting more and more refined. Therefore, we have the wish and the urge to demonstrate our proficiency not only in series production but also in exclusive and limited editions. In this way the beauty of our animals becomes quite an experience both for collectors and animals lovers.
