About Hansa: The magical kingdom of Hansa plush was originally created for the most exclusive European clientele. Europeans have treasured these lifelike heirloom creatures for many years. Each Hansa piece is a handcrafted masterpiece, lovingly designed and superbly crafted. Each marvelous beast is hand-cut and trimmed, never stamped out by machine. The fabric for spotted and striped animals is custom-designed and specially manufactured in small lots to Hansa’s exacting specifications. Gentle paws, swishing tails and, especially, soulful eyes and faces, are lovingly detailed with expert airbrushed accents to give each piece the lifelike look that is unmistakably Hansa
