What is Jellycat?

I realised recently that there are still an awful lot of people that still don't know a single thing about Jellycat.
So I thought a brief introduction might be a good idea.

Jellycat was founded in London in 1999, originally designers and manufacturers of innovative, quirky soft toys but quickly moved into associated accessories with the Catseye ranges (now sadly discontinued) and Jellykitten baby designs, later re-titled 'Little Jellycat'. Catseye London morphed into 'By Jellycat' whereby popular designs such as Colin Chameleon, Sacha Snow Tiger, Bashful Beige Bunny, Odette Ostrich and the phenomenally popular Amuseables are given a whole range of accessories including things like books, soothers, puzzles, melamine plates, cups and bowls, shoulder bags, ear muffs etc. The name Jellycat was dreamt up by a child who loved jellies and cats. The silliness of the name was a great reflection of the design and so it stuck!
Incidentally this is Jellycat's all time best selling design, the world famous Jellycat Bashful Beige Bunny available in seven sizes.
Not long after establishing in the UK, Jellycat Inc was set up in Minneapolis in 2001. In the following years Jellycat spread throughout the UK, USA, Canada, Europe, Asia and even as far as Australia.
Since those early days they have continued to work hard to combine the coolest designs with the most luxurious of fabrics in the process creating thousands of wonderfully innovative soft toys. They are continuously experimenting with designs, trying to find the most lovable combinations which are launched in two collections each year. The Jellycat Summer 2019 catalogue has just been released. We are lucky to be a recommended Jellycat retailer and stockist and have been since 1999. We continue to fly the flag of what we consider to be the worlds best soft toys.
