Jellycat Leola Bear Large

Meet Leola Bear, a dreamy artist with a heart full of magic!

This Autumn Bartholomew's cousin breaks onto the scene. Meet Leola Bear in a beautiful blush pink. She is a talented distracted artist, who has a habit for getting lost in the process. She can’t help it– when inspiration strikes, the hours just melt away… Fortunately, her cousin Bartholomew Bear is always on-hand with a tea top-up and (slightly squashed) plate of biscuits.

You’ll likely find her in her South London studio– surrounded by painting, sculptures and fashion designs. One day her talent will be recognized. For now, though, Leola’s happy making magical things
for her friends and family.

Creating original and innovative soft toys in London since 1999, Jellycat continues to combine luxurious fabrics with designs that are sometimes quirky, sometime cute but always with a little something different that makes them stand out from the crowd! The name Jellycat was dreamt up by a child who loved jellies and cats and giggled at the thought of the two together. The silliness of the name was a great reflection of the design and so it stuck!

What makes a Jellycat special? Perhaps it is the way they sit in your hand, the expression that speaks a thousand words or the feeling of holding one close to you… The answer is different for everyone. And that is the magic.
