Traditional & Limited Edition Teddy Bears
Merrythought has been hand-making the quintessential English teddy bear in the
World Heritage Site of Ironbridge, Shropshire, since 1930.
Within our Victorian factory our talented team of teddy bear makers use traditional
methods and premium materials to craft the finest bears in the world. We believe that
nothing compares to a Merrythought; being handmade in England, each bear has an
individual personality, irresistible charm and superior quality that can last a lifetime.
All sizes are approximate.

Alpha Farnell Tarquin
The historic toy company J. K. Farnell & Co Ltd created
the first British teddy bears in 1906. Throughout the
first half of the twentieth century, Farnell became the
most respected and influential toy manufacturer in
Britain, making fabulous jointed mohair teddy bears
and soft toys, including the famous ‘Alpha’ toys. Sadly,
the company was forced to close production in 1970,
however, Merrythought has since taken on the name
and designs, enabling the wonderful Farnell teddy bear
to continue to be brought to life.
Alpha Farnell Tarquin has been created from designs
originating from the archives of Britian’s oldest teddy
bear brand. He is a timeless bear crafted from a luscious
chocolate mohair and the finest wool felt, featuring the
signature Merrythought Alpha Farnell woven label on
his right foot.
