Description (from PDP, plain text)
Early 20th Century Straw Filled Plush Teddy Bear Disc Joints 44cm An original early 20th century teddy bear made in plush with traditional straw filling and card/wood disc joint construction. The bear features round painted button eyes, a hand stitched wool nose, leather paw pads, and a pronounced back hump with long muzzle, all characteristic of early English and European teddy bear manufacture. The bear retains its original straw filling, giving it a firm structure and authentic early form. The head, arms, and legs are fully jointed using traditional disc joints, allowing it to be posed. The plush covering has aged naturally over time to a distinctive olive green tone, creating an attractive and characterful patina. The proportions, materials, and construction are consistent with bears produced during the interwar period. Bears of this type were made by a number of English and European makers and are now sought after for their authenticity and display character. A genuine early teddy bear with strong presence, ideal for collectors, interior display, or vintage toy collections. ConditionGood original vintage condition with age-related wear. Plush worn and faded in areas consistent with age and use. Straw filling remains firm. Disc joints intact and functional. Painted button eyes and stitched wool nose intact. Leather paw pads show wear. Structurally sound and displays beautifully. DimensionsH: 44 cm EraEarly 20th century, circa 1925–1940
