Teddy Bear

Noisette - William Simpson Teddy Bear Collection

This teddy bear was named ‘Noisette’ by Mr William Simpson who was an avid collector of more than 250 teddy bears. Noisette is a bear key ring with black fur, with it's head attached to a large metal ring. The bear was made in a seated position, with 'C*' embroidered in white on back of left front leg.

Mr Simpson received the bear in Dunkerque at Chritmas 2002. It had been imported into France, probably from the Far East by Marc Laurent Sa. of St Oeun.
