Discovering the Charm of Boyds Bears: A Collector’s Delight

In the world of collectables, few names evoke a sense of warmth and nostalgia quite like Boyds Bears. Known for their whimsical charm and timeless appeal, these beloved bears have been a staple in the hearts of collectors and gift enthusiasts for decades. As both decorative pieces and treasured keepsakes, Boyds Bears have steadily garnered a loyal following since their inception.

The Legacy of Boyds Bears

Since 1979, in Boyds, Maryland, when Gary and Tina Lowenthal created a 12-inch bear with movable joints for their son, Matthew, the inspiration was love. Originally a small family endeavor, the brand quickly grew thanks to its unique blend of hand-crafted quality and irresistible charm. Each bear was designed with a distinct personality, featuring intricate details and playful accessories that made them stand out in the plush market.
After thirty-five years, Boyds Bears needed a little rest and went into hibernation. Now, ten years later they are stirring and just about fully awake from their nap — ready to celebrate their forty-fifth anniversary with renewed excitement and an adventurous spirit, trekking out of their den and back into your hearts and homes — where they belong.

A Gift for All Ages

Boyds Bears are more than just collectables — they make perfect gifts for loved ones. Whether marking a special occasion or simply adding joy to someone’s day, these super-soft and cuddly bears convey heartfelt sentiments and create lasting memories. Their timeless appeal ensures they are cherished gifts for both the young and the young at heart. All bears are age grade 1+.
