Softly stuffed and gently weighted, this teddy bear feels like something rediscovered in an attic trunk. His fur is a muted honey-brown, and around his neck is a little patchwork scarf sewn from offcuts of tartan and tweed.

His stitched smile and button eyes are simple, reassuring — the face of a true companion. He sits beautifully beneath the Christmas tree or atop a child’s pillow.

More keepsake than toy, he’s the sort of friend that stays.
