Burgundy Bow Teddy Bear Limoges Box

A teddy bear dressed up in a rich burgundy bow forms this porcelain figurine box, looking ready for a holiday portrait. Painted by hand in Limoges, France, it is one of the dressier members of the teddy bear series.

Dressed in Burgundy

A bow at the neck has been the classic finishing touch on teddy bears since they first appeared in shop windows in the early 1900s. In deep burgundy, this one feels a little more formal, the color of velvet ribbons and holiday wrapping.

Bear Family Portrait

• Hand-painted porcelain from Limoges, France
• Fits a teddy bear, nursery or toy collection
• Pairs with the blue bow teddy for a matched bear pair

Valentines, Christmas and Baby Showers

Set it on a nursery dresser, a bedroom shelf or a holiday mantel. It makes a fitting present for a baby shower, a birthday, Valentine's Day or Christmas, and a sweet token for a grandparent who keeps a bear collection going. The burgundy suits winter months especially well, but the bear looks at home all year. Set him beside a framed family photo and he becomes part of the picture.
