Limited Edition: 2023
Special Features:
Merrythought is proud to offer this exquisite collectable bear in commemoration of His Majesty King Charles III’s Coronation on 6 May 2023.
Beautifully crafted in our historic British factory, he is a true future heirloom and features golden mohair plush paired with pure cotton velvet paws, one of which is embroidered with the King’s official cypher and the occasion date. His noble persona is enhanced by deep blue eyes and a neatly hand-stitched nose and smile.
Marking the first Coronation in 70 years, this important teddy bear is dressed in an impressive pure cotton velvet robe, with satin lining, gold embroidery and Italian tassel detailing. As befitting a new monarch, he is presented with a stunning silver-plated replica of the Imperial state crown. Adorned with 26 glass gemstones, pure cotton velvet lining and white woven faux fur trim, it is a masterpiece in its own right.
Each bear is individually numbered as part of a limited edition of 2023 and has a certificate of authenticity.

The Merrythought teddy bear is still widely regarded as the ultimate and classic childhood toy, treasured by children and adult collectors across the globe. Nothing compares to a Merrythought – each bear has a unique character and superior quality that can last a lifetime.
At Merrythought we source only premium materials to lovingly create our teddy bears. The best quality natural plush is selected and neatly cut to each soft toy’s unique set of patterns, many of which are based on original templates from the earliest years. Incorporating other natural materials, such as wool felt and cotton, the pieces are expertly worked with traditional needle and thread to form each part of the bear.
The eyes, legs, arms and joints are skilfully sewn and assembled by hand, gradually creating the recognisable characteristics of the Merrythought bear. Taking time to fill the soft toy to an optimum weight, it is then ready for the finishing touches; a carefully hand-embroidered nose and smile, a thorough brush and trim, and a neatly tied bow or accessory.
As a signature of quality, our exceptional soft toys are finished with a prestigious stamp of approval – the famous Merrythought gold-and-black label stitched to the right paw. A teddy bear is then ready to start its journey as someone’s lifelong friend, continuing the magical Merrythought story for another generation.
