Clemens Bears Welcome to Bears from The Clemens Spieltiere.
Hans Clemens arrived in Kirchast/Baden in Germany from Alsace
with his family in 1948, immediately after the second world war.
Like most people at that time, he had lost everything, including
his manufacturing business and a wholesale trade business in shoes,
due to the war. He opened a retail business in Mannheim, selling glass
porcelain and gifts, but was constantly asked by customers for Teddy Bears.
Since these did not exist during the war Hans Clemens made the decision
to help his customers and began to produce Teddy Bears from old army blankets.
His sister produced these by hand and every Teddy Bear was lovingly and individually
made.Clemens is today a well known soft toy company in Germany whos Teddy bears
and animals have conquered the hearts of many collectors and children.
Following in his fathers footsteps, Peter Clemens took over the business, but eventually
retired from managing the company in 2002 in order to concentrate on
developing new designs and concepts for the collectionas.
