Emile Thiennot worked for Marcel Pintel earlier in his life, but in 1919, he set up on his own selling bears and other soft toys under the trade name of Jouet Champenois.  In 1920, Thiennot won a prize for one of his Teddy Bears.  In 1957, the firm, however, changed its name to Creation Tieno.  The firm closed its doors in 1993.  Many early Teddy Bears made by this company are quite difficult to identify and could and often do, get mistaken for Pintel Teddy Bears.
