Northumbrian Bears

a yellow and red striped flag laid on a grass verge next to a country road. There are two cars in the distance. On the flag are two teddy bears, a bottle of wine and a bar of chocolate. The bears are posed sitting either side of the wine and chocolate. On the right hand side, the bear is made from black and white houndstooth fabric, with red and yellow striped inner ears, paw pads and bowtie. It has embroidered black eyes and a fabric brown button nose. The bear on the left is made from light brown fleece with the same inner ears, paw pads and bowtie as the other bear. It also has embroidered black eyes and a sewn on brown fabric nose.

Made with love and expert craftsmanship in Northumbria, the Northumbrian Bears are proudly Northern - born and bred.

Their names and designs pay homage to the rich history of Northumbria and the iconic colour schemes and patterns associated with the county.

MEET THE BEARS

Norman

The first of the Northumbrian Bears. Norman is made from black and white woven houndstooth style fabric and has Northumberland flag style paws.

Aidan

Named after St Aidan of Lindisfarne, Aidan is an all over flag-patterned bear in the iconic Northumberland county flag colours.

OSwald

Extra huggable and fluffy, Oswald shares his name with King Oswald of Northumbria. He has the same style of flag patterned paws as Norman, but his soft fur is a luxurious alternative to Norman or Aidan.
