This young man is 100% amazing. He looks incredible in the photo, but in the real he is beyond incredible.
Just everything about him is beyond it.
So very happy happy and I thank you, the artist, very very much for this beautiful creature.
Just fabulous

I bought one bear from Vicky and loved him sooo much, that I purchased another!
Absolutely beautiful bears, great expressions and attention to detail.
Vicky is really lovely and easy to work with regarding your order.
Took between three to four weeks for the bears to arrive in England.
Didn’t get charged any other duties, which was great 👍
I expect I won’t be stopping at two bears, as I really love Vicky’s work.

Carla, I'm very glad that you also love him in real! I hope that my bears will bring only good&warm feelings and fond memories!! Thanks for your order, trust and patience, and kind words!)

I adopted "Eva" after I adopted "Feelings" and "Hope" and I very much appreciated the effort from Victoria to find the right "mohair" for Eva. As this was for my granddaughter, I aimed for something that reminded me of a time when I was young and toys were made with love in an old fashioned and artistic way. The outcome did not disappoint and although my granddaughter appears to love "feelings" she hasn't quiet reached the point discussing this topic with me. My daughter in law very much likes the bear which appears to have its own character and visitors people seeing it are in awe of it. So, thank you Victoria for your love and talent in creating "Eva".
In addition, I can comment that all materials used and Victoria's workmanship are of the highest quality.

Thanks so much, Hans! I hope my bears'll bring joy and good mood, and will delight your family and kids for many years!)

Prior to adopting "Hope", I adopted "Feelings" so I understood the love and passion of Victoria. As this was for my granddaughter, I aimed for something that reminded me of a time when I was young and toys were made with love in an old fashioned and artistic way.

I adopted "feeling" based on some pictures of other bears and Victoria's willingness to create this fairly large size bear. As this was for my granddaughter, I aimed for something that reminded me of a time when I was young and toys were made with love in an old fashioned and artistic way. The outcome did not disappoint and although my granddaughter appears to love "feelings" she hasn't quiet reached the point discussing this topic with me.

My first impression upon taking my new bear out of his travel box was "WOW! What a stunning bear!" This artist is extremely talented and I feel so lucky to have my bear!
The impeccable attention to the detail in the face of my gorgeous bear makes him look as though he will come to life at any second. He truly does take your breath away!

Thank you so very much! I can't wait to come back soon to adopt more teddies from you. Your teddies are incredible!

Thank you very much for such kind words!!!)

This is the third bear I’ve adopted from Vicky. Her work is great and all of the bears that I’ve adopted have been very high quality. She’s also very responsive and accommodating. I wanted to add a custom tag with the name and birthdate of the person that I adopted the bear for, and Vicky graciously created a hand-sewn tag to accommodate this! It added a unique and custom touch for the recipient.

Bryan, thanks so much, for your trust, and kind words, too!)

Gordon is a lovely bear, and he shipped quickly. Victoria is a delight to work with and a very talented artist. I had also ordered a little hedgehog from her prior to registering on Tedsby, and he is also quite a delight! I will post pics of both. Thank you, Vicky, for such wonderful additions to my collection! Jo Ann

This wonderful bear has been beautifully crafted in gorgeous materials. Henry has exceeded all my expectations.
He arrived safely, well wrapped and far sooner than I expected.
I am so impressed with the detail and the finish, he is perfect in every way, down to his little knitted jacket and unique button.
I would not hesitate to buy from this artist again.
Truly an heirloom piece to hand down to future generations.
