We’re excited to share a major milestone: Ming Productions has officially expanded into puppets with our own in-house production in Spain! This new venture marks a significant step forward in our mission to create high-quality, design-driven products for museum shops, cultural centers, and retail partners across Europe and beyond.
Made in Spain by Ming: Where artistry meets innovation
Following the acquisition of a specialized puppet factory in Spain, all our puppets are now designed, crafted, and produced entirely under our own roof. By bringing production in-house, we’ve achieved what every curator and buyer values most: control, consistency, and creativity. Our team combines traditional craftsmanship with modern production methods to ensure every puppet reflects the authentic European artistry that defines Ming Productions.
Explore how MING’s new customizable puppet line can add charm and creativity to your product selection. Each creation reflects our commitment to authenticity, sustainability, and storytelling turning creative concepts into tangible, collectible pieces of art.

Artwork Teddy Bears
Our Artwork Teddy Bears (Custom teddy bears) merge fine art and craftsmanship through digitally printed, full-color fabrics that reinterpret or reproduce the world’s greatest artworks in a warm form.
Each teddy bear showcases unique designs inspired by painting, music, and design — from Van Gogh-inspired textures to floral still-life motifs and symphonic patterns.
Every piece is tailored to the needs of each institution, with different sizes and product variations including Teddy Magnets, Teddy Keyrings, and more — transforming timeless creativity into something soft, collectible, and contemporary.
Artist Teddy Bears
Our Artist Teddy Bears pay tribute to the world’s most beloved artists, reinterpreted through the warmth and charm of handcrafted plush design.
