The 2009 Charlie Bear of the Year has been re-imagined by the English Ladies Co. into a petite figurine sat atop 2 books. This Charlie Bear fashions a shiny, oversized bow over soft golden-brown fur texture that has been modelled in fine bone china with beautiful detail.
Superbly hand-painted by one of our master painters, the 2009 Charlie Bear of the Year poses warmly, with a friendly wave.
Limited to 600 pieces worldwide, this petite figurine comes in a gorgeous cubby-house gift box with a secret door opening! Plus, a numbered, limited-edition certificate of authentication to signify the English Ladies Co. CB2024 range is also included.


As the first Year Bear to be introduced by Charlie Bears in 2009, this soon became a collector favourite. This bear remains a timeless and cherished addition for all collectors and a staple character for our first giftware launch. Working closely with Charlie and Will, we have ensured the essence of the original bears has been exquisitely preserved in our sculptures. Each piece is thoughtfully designed to maintain the cuddly charm of these furry bears, even in fine bone china.
