Meet Floyd, a little duck with a quiet, old-fashioned charm that feels both timeless and fresh.
Made from natural linen and cotton, Floyd wears classic brown linen overalls, a biscuit-coloured hat knitted in Australian merino wool, and brown and cream striped stockings.
Floyd loves helping his Grandpa plant tiny seedlings in the garden and racing his bike down the hill. He doesn't like eating his crusts.
He's rarely far from Wanda duck, his partner in adventure, who prefers reading with her Grandma and never wants to go to bed.
Each Floyd duck comes with his own character tag, a little poem in his own words, so every forever friend gets a proper introduction.
Gets softer with every wash and every cuddle. Floyd is the kind of linen duck built to be dragged, loved and packed for every road trip.
Suitable from birth, Floyd is a beautiful newborn gift, baby shower keepsake or first-birthday treasure.
I love adventures but I do need to be looked after: Spot clean with a damp cloth for small marks- this is the gentlest option and will extend the life of me.
I do love a bath (especially with bubbles and a good book) but I’m just as happy with a simple wash in a bucket, it helps me stay soft and last for years to come. (don't soak me for too long)
If a full wash is needed: place in a mesh laundry bag and machine wash on a gentle cold cycle.
Lay flat to dry. Do not tumble dry.
Do not bleach.
Natural linen cotton may soften slightly with washing — this won't affect my appearance or safety.
FAQ's
AQ: Is Floyd Duck suitable for newborns?
A: Yes, all of our soft toys are suitable from birth, with no small or removable parts and soft, gentle materials designed for delicate skin.
Q: What is Floyd made from?
A: Floyd is made from natural linen with soft cotton plush ears and Australian merino wool knitted overalls. He is filled with recycled polyfill and has bagged plastic beans in his base, providing gentle sensory weight. Thoughtfully designed in Australia and manufactured overseas to exacting standards.
Q: Is Floyd a good gender-neutral gift?
A: Floyd's natural linen tones and classic styling make him one of our most popular gender-neutral choices for baby showers and newborn gifts.
Q: Does Floyd come gift wrapped?
A: Gift wrapping is available at checkout — perfect if you're sending directly to the recipient.
I bought the vintage pink blanket as a gift for my nephew and his wife in South Africa, and it is so gorgeous that I bought a second one as a gift for a good friend who has a baby girl. It is very pretty and so soft. The vintage colours give it a really 'expensive' look. I will certainly buy again in future.
