Description A beautiful Cheeky version of the teddy bear who famously inspired AA Milne’s Winnie the Pooh stories; Edward Bear. Originally created by Farnell in 1921, Edward was brought to life again by Merrythought as the star of major feature film ‘Goodbye Christopher Robin’, and 2021 marks his 100th birthday. Purchased from Harrods by Daphne Milne for the first birthday of her son, Christopher Robin, Edward bear and his owner formed a unique bond and became the best of friends. Christopher’s father, AA Milne, was so enamoured by the partnership he witnessed between a boy and his teddy bear, that he decided to pen stories about their journey through life together. And so, Winnie The Pooh was born. Hand-crafted in England from the same natural materials as those used for Christopher Robin’s original Edward bear, this handsome chap features a rich, antique golden mohair coat and sandy-beige pure woollen felt paws. Presented with an individually numbered certificate. LIMITED EDITION OF 200 Presented with a drawstring bag, to help keep your new companion clean and dust-free. WARNING!
