Punkinhead

This eccentric teddy bear was initially produced exclusively for Eaton’s Department Stores, where the character became synonymous with their Christmas festivities. Appearing in a variety of books and marketing campaigns, Punkinhead even led Eaton’s renowned annual Christmas parade. Often known simply as ‘Punkie’, this iconic Merrythought bear is characterised by a long top-knot and beaming smile, and is cherished by collectors the world over.

Our delightful replica Punkinhead is handmade in our historic British factory using the same traditional skills and materials. Carefully crafted from dark chocolate and golden mohair plush, accompanied by peach-coloured wool felt paws. Punkinhead is dressed in a pair of traditional red wool felt shorts, and boasts his signature top-knot of hair.

As with each character in Merrythought’s Heritage Collection, Punkinhead features an authentic replica of our earliest ‘hygienic toys’ label, and has been individually numbered as a Special Edition. Presented in a pure cotton dust bag with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Suitable for children over 36 months. Please remove all tags and accessories before giving to a child.
