Meet the Stanley Bears®

Stanley Bears® are traditional teddies made from fine German mohair and top quality acrylic. I draw my own exclusive patterns, and all bears are fully jointed. They are filled with new, non-allergenic polyester fibre. One feature of Stanley Bears is the German hump similar to bears in the wild.

Bears for Serious Collectors

Every year since 1995 I have been creating bears for collectors, including Special Limited Editions of forty bears. Released in April each year they invariably sell out within twelve weeks. I have three collectors who have every edition since 1995, and I am often asked if I can recreate past editions. This is not possible, because I destroy the pattern after the 40th bear has been made.

Recent subjects include Peter Lalor of Eureka; Hans Christian Andersen; Tom Roberts; Miranda from Picnic at Hanging Rock; Young Stan; and George Francis Morris of Morris Wines..

The Stanley Bear Club

Since I began making Special Edition Bears, many of my collectors have added their names to the Special Edition Register. This ensures that they are given preference when a new bear is about to be released. On placing their order they nominate when they would like to take delivery. This can be any time between the release date and the end of the year. I also have lay-by facilities. You can join the Stanley Bear Club by completing the online form at left.
