There are few things more timeless than a well-loved teddy bear — that comforting, familiar friend that reminds us of childhood adventures and kindness that lasts a lifetime.
We’re thrilled to announce that Pangolins® is now an official stockist of Merrythought, one of Britain’s most cherished heritage toymakers. Established in 1930, Merrythought bears are lovingly handmade in their Ironbridge factory in Shropshire, using the finest natural materials and traditional craftsmanship. Each bear is beautifully finished with an iconic gold and black label stitched to its paw — a mark of true British quality.
Among our new arrivals is the nation’s favourite bear himself: Paddington™, complete with his blue duffle coat, red hat, and little suitcase for marmalade sandwiches. Each bear is handmade with the same care and charm that has captured hearts for generations — the perfect keepsake for collectors and children alike.
Alongside the classic Paddington, we’re also delighted to introduce Merrythought’s adorable miniature bear charms — tiny, exquisitely crafted companions that can be attached to a bag or used as a key charm. Each one is full of character and charm, bringing a little joy wherever it goes.
These heirloom-quality bears aren’t just gifts — they’re lifelong friends, designed to be treasured, loved, and passed on to future generations.
