Miffy: Sitting Terry Light Grey

This adorable member of the Miffy Terry Collection is truly one of the softest Miffy's ever made. The fabric feels like a luxury towel-y terry and encases a flexible stuffing making them the best cuddle partners, even for the tiniest babies. They're the ultimate baby gift!

Miffy was created in 1953 after Dutch artist Dick Bruna had been telling his one-year-old son, Sierk, stories about a little rabbit they had seen earlier in the dunes while on holiday at Egmond aan Zee. Miffy became a female after Bruna decided that he wanted to draw a dress and not trousers on his rabbit. Depending on the story, Miffy can range in age from being a baby to being four years old.

At first Miffy looked like a toy animal with floppy ears, but by 1963, her design was changed to her current incarnation, a stylized form of a rabbit. Miffy is drawn in a graphic style, with minimalist black graphic lines. Bruna chose to only use black, white, the primary colors (red, yellow and blue), green, orange, brown, and gray. It is his use of primarily primary colors that makes Miffy instantly recognisable, and also popular with preschoolers, because of her bright and intense simplistic colors.

Your Terry Miffy is handcrafted. You can wash her, but we don't recommend using a machine. Hand wash only.
