Seller: two.twenty.two.antiques ✉️ (195) 100%, Location: Rugeley, GB, Ships to: WORLDWIDE, Item: 276393027119 Superb Cute Vintage 1960s Chad Valley Chiltern 15" Soft Golden Mohair Teddy Bear.

Here for your consideration is a beautiful, vintage, circa 1967, Chad Valley/Chiltern teddy bear, with a really cute face, his original felt paws, glass eyes, and beautiful mohair. He isn't jointed so a completely soft toy except for his glass eyes.

His mohair is a lovely golden colour and still beautifully plush.  He's in lovely original condition for a teddy bear that's 53 years old. He does have some age-related mohair patina/patination commensurate with age, but nothing unusual.

This lovely little teddy bear still has his original Chad Valley label on his left side.  When Chiltern was taken over by Chad Valley in 1967, the Chad Valley Chiltern white label, again with blue print, was used. Following the take-over of the Chiltern label in 1967, bears were produced under both the Chad Valley and Chiltern trade names. 

Chad Valley bears ...

Notable for their large ears and bulbous noses that are often compared to pieces of coal. Chad Valley was already a well-established toy company before it started to make teddy bears in 1915. It was granted a Royal Warrant in 1938 and was one of the very few firms that continued to produce toys during both World Wars. The company expanded and bought other toy companies, Isaacs & Co in 1923, Peacock & Co in 1931 and H G Stone (Chiltern) in 1967, all of which added to their teddy and soft toy range. Chad Valley was taken over by Palitoy in 1978.

Dimensions as follows...

Height: 11 inches or 28 cm (sat)
