Description from the seller

Unfortunately no information on hand, but according to Gemini

Steiff (Germany) – a very common model; at Steiff the metal button was in the left ear.
Hermann / Gebrüder Hermann (Germany).
Clemens or Sonny / Grisly (Germany).
Also early British manufacturers (such as Chiltern or Chad Valley) make comparable bears.
3. Age / Year of appearance
Estimate: Approximately 1930s to 1950s (at the latest early 1960s).
Clues for the age:
The pronounced snout area and the proportions (longer arms/legs) are typical for the mid-20th century.
Storage and wear marks on the mohair fur correspond to a typical aging of 70–90 years.
Tip for on-site verification:
Feel test (stuffing): If the bear crinkles/rattles slightly when gently pressed, it is stuffed with wood wool (a clear sign of an older construction year before 1960).
