Welcome to Canterbury Bears

We are a mother and daughter team, Maude & Kerstin and our family have been making teddy bears near the historic City of Canterbury in Kent for more than 40 years.

Our bears are created from the highest quality materials, delivered with an environmental promise.

We hope you like our bears as much as we enjoyed making them!
