Dear Collector
Firstly, thank you for visiting my website.
I made my first bear in January of 2003 and I am now lucky enough to make them on a full-time basis. My aim has been to create traditional style Teddy Bears with a contemporary twist, to be enjoyed by collectors.
| Each bear is uniquely designed and made with highest quality materials available, including fine English and German mohair and glass eyes. All of the bears are fully jointed using cotter pin joints - all of the larger bears (12" and over) have wobble jointed heads. They are filled with varying combinations of polyester fibre, cotton fibre and traditional woodwool. For a reassuring weighty feel steel shot is added to their tummies, paws and toes. Noses are embroidered and often waxed, whilst further detailing is painted by hand to provide a gently aged look. Many bears are available with handmade clothing or vintage accessories. |  |
 | A great deal of time is spent to ensure that each bear has a unique personality and character and each year I only make about 75 bears. I sincerely hope that each bear will become a faithful companion and bring pleasure for years to come. Please take a look around the site and if you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me. |
Best wishes
Vicky Allum
