Merrythought, Britain’s last remaining teddy bear factory, has designed a splendid collectable teddy bear in celebration of Her Majesty The Queen’s 90th birthday, alongside her historic achievement in becoming Britain’s longest reigning monarch.
This exquisite piece has been hand crafted in the original workshop in Ironbridge, Shropshire, where Merrythought have been making teddy bears since 1930; a magical place where each teddy bear is brought to life using only the finest material and traditional craftsmanship that has been passed down four generations of the family business.
Through studying the designs of HM’s favourite outfits, Merrythought’s skilled team have really encapsulated Queen Elizabeth’s grace and refined sense of dress. The bear is made from the most opulent mohair, and adorned with a beautifully authentic overcoat, making it a true ‘once in a lifetime’ collector’s piece.
‘HM Queen Elizabeth II Teddy Bear’ is available from quality retailers, including Harrods, Teddy Bears of Witney, World of Bears and The Merrythought Teddy Bear Shop and website (www.merrythought.co.uk) priced at around £259.00.
