Steiff for Danbury Mint Princess of Wales Catherine Bear
This limited edition teddy bear was produced exclusively for Danbury Mint by Steiff to honor the appointment of Catherine as Princess of Wales in 2022. Handmade from caramel-colored mohair, the bear is detailed with black boot-button eyes and hand-stitched facial features. The left paw is embroidered with the Red Dragon of Wales, "Y Ddraig Goch," and the right paw bears the name Catherine. Around its neck is a red satin and ivory lace ribbon suspending a portrait pendant of the Princess of Wales, framed in red enamel and accented with a diamond-white crystal. The bear is marked with the Steiff signature metal button and a white tag with red lettering in the left ear, verifying its authenticity and limited edition designation. Only 2,022 bears were issued to commemorate the year King Charles III officially named William and Catherine the new Prince and Princess of Wales. Catherine became the eleventh member of the British royal family to hold this title. Certificate of Authenticity included. Measurements are taken with the bear in a standing position.
