50657-Rare Antique French Mohair Teddy Bear

50657-Rare Antique French Mohair Teddy Bear This is an antique French teddy bear from the early 20th century. Its body is firmly and fully stuffed with natural straw, giving it a solid feel that captures the warmth of handcrafted toys from that era. The teddy bear's surface is covered with early mohair, a natural fiber from the Angora goat known for its high durability and elegant luster, which was widely used in the creation of high-end dolls and toys of the time. The hand-stitched nose and mouth are notably well-preserved with no loose threads. Its precious glass eyes give the bear an innocent and soulful expression. The paws and footpads are made from a pinkish-beige fabric that, while slightly faded, has perfectly intact stitching. It's worth noting that the bear's mohair has a mottled and aged appearance. These are not stains but rather the natural marks of time, serving as a testament to its history of being held and cherished. 數量內容content ：一隻泰迪熊A teddy bear 尺寸size：長L18x 寬W16X 高H30cm 重量weight ：393g 材質Material：馬海毛mohair（參考Q&A); 木屑稻草填充（excelsior / straw filled） 年份Year：20世紀初 early 20th century 產地 From：法國France 印標hallmark : 無N/A Reference code : W50830-2306 ⚠️請留意：表面毛色澤與質地帶有斑駁與舊化歷史痕跡，但外觀完整。古董物件無論顏色與表面皆有歷史使用痕跡，若有任何問題，歡迎請來訊詢問。 ⚠️親愛的來自國外的朋友們，全球運輸提供安全包裝。 歡迎隨時與我們詢問運費相關事宜。 ⚠️ Please note: The right foot is slightly soft inside and feels somewhat different from the left foot.

Q&A *什麼是馬海毛 Mohair 馬海毛（Mohair）其實是指安哥拉山羊（Angora goat）身上的長纖維毛。「Mohair」這個詞來自阿拉伯語「mukhayyar」（مُخَيَّر），意思是「精選的布料」。它是一種光澤度高、質地柔滑、極耐用的天然動物纖維。一般會用於高級服飾、西裝、毛毯，也廣泛應用於早期高品質泰迪熊的毛料外層。 經由英文「Mohair」音譯為中文。「馬」和「海」是對「Mohair」發音的模仿，帶有一些象徵意義（如「海」可能聯想到海上貿易）；「毛」則直指其材質。雖然名稱中帶有「馬」，但實際上與馬無關，而是來自安哥拉山羊。這個名字不僅反映了材料的歷史淵源，也為它增添了獨特的魅力。 *安哥拉山羊的起源： 安哥拉山羊原產於土耳其安卡拉地區（古稱「安哥拉」），早在13世紀，當地就開始用這種山羊的毛製作織物。這種織物因其柔軟、光澤和耐用性而聞名，成為中東和歐洲貴族的寵愛。
