Steiff Charles Coronation Bear

Prince Charles was destined for the throne from the day he was born. When Queen Elizabeth II passed away peacefully at Balmoral on 8th September 2022, the throne passed immediately, and without ceremony, to her eldest son, the former Prince of Wales.

To commemorate such a momentous moment in history, Steiff have crafted a beautiful collector bear to honour the new King. He’s hand-made from the finest ivory-coloured mohair – one of the most beautiful and sustainable natural fibres in the world - with contrasting velvet paw pads, black boot-button eyes and a delicate hand-stitched nose and mouth.

On his right paw pad, in regal burgundy thread which perfectly complements his luxurious velvet ribbon, you’ll see the King’s new cypher “CIIIR”. The crowning glory for this very special bear is the 22ct gold-plated medallion around his neck.

It shows a portrait of Charles III in profile bordered by a pattern inspired by the design of the stone-setting on the Imperial State Crown. The reverse states the date of his coronation – 6th May 2023. size 12"
