During World War One many British Soldiers used to be given a little bear by their sweethearts and loved ones. These bears had eyes that were high up on their heads which peeped out of the soldiers' top pockets. The little bears on this page are my version of these bears. Today they are much sought after and fetch many hundreds of pounds.

I have recently been naming the Soldier Bears after real Soldiers from WW1 obtained  from this website  http://www.rememberthefallen.co.uk/ . which also includes interesting information on each person.

If you would like a Soldier Bear made and named after anyone from the website or a loved one please contact me.
