The second important work made by the women in
the Needlework Room is the hand stitching of the nose, because by this work
the Bear's face gets more and more its own life. The women use wool or cotton
threads in different colours like brown, black or pink. Sometimes also
multicoloured noses are stitched like the HERMANN-Coburg Artline Bears have
them.

The old traditional Max Hermann Teddy Bear's
nose is stitched horizontally. Still today this type is used for the most
HERMANN-Coburg Teddy Bears. But in addition you will find today also many
other different types of embroidery in the HERMANN-Coburg Teddy Bear collection
like the vertical stitches.
Sometimes also the paws are stitched by hand with the old traditional claws. This depends on the character and also on the price of the Teddy Bear. This kind of work is called claws stitching.
The noses and also the claws of the Teddy Bear can only be stitched by the most skilled women. It needs about 1 year, till a women has the special feeling for the personality of a Teddy Bear to be able to stitch its nose.
