Basil Bear | soft toy

Meet Basil, the cosiest little bear who loves to snuggle.

Made from beautifully soft wool-blend fabric, Basil wears a hand-knitted Australian merino wool jumper in teal blue. Designed in Australia, every detail has been thoughtfully chosen to give him a timeless, heirloom feel. He measures approximately 34cm.

Basil loves flying kites on windy afternoons, reading his favourite books beside the window and long lazy mornings tucked under the blankets. He doesn't like getting up early.

He particularly loves reading with his friend Fletcher bear, who builds the cosiest blanket forts for the two of them to disappear into. He's also often found sharing a book with Miles dog, another bookish friend from the wool-blend family.

Each Basil bear arrives with his own character tag, a small story in his own words, so every forever friend gets a proper introduction.

His wool-blend body and knitted merino jumper make him the kind of companion children reach for again and again.

Suitable from birth, Basil is a beautiful new baby gift, baby shower present or a child's first plush bear.
