A teddy bear is the most wonderful gift. They have been popular for generations, invented at the beginning of the 20th century, and quickly becoming one of the most treasured possessions we own. Teddy bears have been lovingly gifted to people across the globe, much to the delight of the recipient. No matter whether you are a toddler, teenager or even a fully grown adult - a teddy bear is the perfect present for anyone. There can't be many people who haven't owned a bear at one time or another!

Teddy bears have obtained a reputation as adorable symbols of peace,love and playfulness, which Michael loves to replicate.

Since then, Michael has been designing the most wonderful teddies for customers from all over the world, each made with the same care and dedication as the last. Michael even designs the Christmas teddy bear for Liberty and always looks forward to selecting the new Liberty prints for the bears each year.
Michael’s teddy bears are available in a wide variety of different designs and styles. He would be more than happy to work with you on a bespoke project to design your dream furry friend, with an understanding that making teddy bears is about tender, loving care. No matter whether you would like to buy a more traditional bear with a classic feel or would like something completely different such as an icon bear or luxury teddy bear, our collections offer something for all tastes.
