this limited-edition teddy bear has perfectly captured Queen Elizabeth II\u2019s likeness<\/a>. From her trademark brightly coloured coat, pearl necklace and wry smile, the plush bear from toy company Steiff is instantly recognisable as our former monarch.<\/p>\nThe keepsake item, available to buy now, was the mastermind of Nicolas Metz, managing director at curated collectable retailer Galerista, who wanted to create something special to mark what would have been Queen Elizabeth\u2019s 100th birthday.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is much more than a bear,\u201d he tells the Daily Express. \u201cIt\u2019s a keepsake and it embodies what the Queen stood for: stability, her values.\u201d It\u2019s the first time the company has produced a royal bear in complete likeness to a royal, as previous editions have seen the traditional teddy wearing a medallion or necklace rather than a complete outfit.<\/p>\n
The Queen\u2019s bear was months in the making, with a special working group convening to decide on every minute detail, to perfect the sandy colouring, black boot-button eyes, delicate hand-stitched nose and slight smile that \u201cwas friendly, but not too friendly\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
