Merrythought - Celebrating 80 Years

Established in 1930, Merrythought has been hand-making the quintessential British Teddy Bear for over 80 years from the world famous factory in Ironbridge, Shropshire.

Treasured by children and adults across the globe, all our teddy bears are fully jointed and made using the finest materials and craftsmanship. This means that nothing compares to a Merrythought – each bear has a unique character and superior quality that can last a lifetime.
