Walter is a large, traditional one of a kind, artist teddy bear in antique gold mohair by Barbara Ann Bears with an Edwardian collar
Walter is quite a large bear, he's 21.5 inches/54cm tall and is 15.5 inches/40cm sitting.
Walter is a wonderful, friendly traditional teddy bear. He has an aura of calm and serenity, he's completely unflappable, in any crisis he'll just sit and watch everyone rushing around him, of course that's what all teddy bears do, waiting for everything to calm down and it's good time for hugging.
Walter is made from a beautiful long and twirly antique gold mohair which has just a tinge of olive in it, it's a mohair we obtained from a retiring teddy bear maker and not one we are likely to see again, it's rather luscious and special. Walter has beige wool felt paw pads which blend with his mohair perfectly. Walter has large amber glass buttons for eyes, a splendid, carefully embroidered brown nose and a relaxed and demure expression.
Walter is stuffed with a mixture of polyester stuffing and plastic pellets, giving him a cuddly and relaxed demeanour, comfortable and easy to pose and hug. As with all our bears he is 5-way jointed.
Walter comes with an Edwardian style shirt collar which is closed with a metal stud and can be removed easily by your valet. It gives him a rather aristocratic bearing, as if he could have just walked off the set of Brideshead Revisited or Downton Abbey. We have included a few photos of him without his collar, so you can see that he's a relaxed cuddly teddy bear at heart.
Walter is a charming and very friendly bear, he's definitely a bear who loves his food, particularly cakes and cream scones all washed down with the best tea in the best china crockery, or a mug! We hope you like him.
We'll pop in some photos with Walter and we are happy to put in a greetings card and gift tags, maybe a birthday card or one for another occasion, you can choose one from our greetings card page and let us know which card you would like.
As with all our bears, Walter is not a toy, he is an adult collectible and unsuitable for children under 14.
