Our Heritage
Founded in 2018, YvesRicherds began with a simple mission: to preserve the ancient art of needle felting while bringing joy to homes around the world.
What started as a small workshop in the countryside has grown into a global community of artisans, each bringing their unique cultural traditions to every piece they create.
We believe that in a world of mass production, there's something magical about owning something made entirely by hand. Each of our plush toys takes 8-12 hours to create, from the first poke of the needle to the final stitch.
