Repairs
Make an enquiryVintage Teddy Repairs can be anything from a missing eye/s, a broken seam, a damaged or missing paw/foot pad, replacement joints, limbs or head fallen off… you name it we’ve probably seen it!
Floppy Teddy Bears and Soft Toys are often due to stuffing compacting over time, so a ‘top-up’ can be done to stop further tearing of their fabric through constant bending. -
Cleaning / Refilling
Make an enquiryWe deep clean many modern and vintage toys daily - these can often be booked quite quickly in between our more complex work. Years of cuddling and hugs take their toll and teddy can harbour quite a lot of dust and bacteria…
A good clean can help any teddy/toy to last a lot more years, become brighter and cuddly again reducing the risk of Moths & insects who just love to eat Vintage mohair!!

Restoration / Conservation
Make an enquiryTeddy Bear Restoration helps your cherished friend to become the best version of their former self - not new - but sympathetically bought back to life, keeping their history, character and charm intact. We know how important they are to you and we treat them like our own ❤️
They are completed lovingly by hand using traditional materials and methods in keeping with their age.
Welcome to Davey Bears
Hello! I'm Ange and I run Davey Bears Teddy Bear Hospital in Cornwall.
I repair and restore Antique and Vintage Teddy Bears and Toys from all over the World 🌍
✨We have our luxurious pamper Spa... where we offer Teddy Bear deep cleaning + re-stuffing and we also have our busy Teddy Bear Repair workshop completing Teddy & Toy repairs, full restorations and careful conservation work required by the older generation of Teddy Bears out there.
We have some gorgeous vintage & modern Teddies & Toys in our Shop if you would like to add another friend to your hug! Check it out 🐾
Before any restoration work starts, they have a full assessment which includes learning about their history from you, so they keep their all important character intact. Also, where applicable, finding out their maker so they are given the most sympathetic and accurate restoration possible.
Teddy bear repairs in Cornwall are lovingly carried out from my home workshop.
You can visit me in person by appointment, or you can send your Teddy Bear by post - Davey Bears receives a lot of work via Royal Mail 'Hospital' Post 🐻
Before & After

Angie is extremely knowledgeable and talented. She patiently explained the options for my 59 year old bear. I know a huge amount of research went into finding a colour match for the fabric. That's before the painstaking work started to clean and repair him. The result is outstanding and I am very grateful. I highly recommend Davey Bears.

Ange has done a fantastic job restoring my childhood cheeky bear. She really has brought him back to life and he now has many years ahead of him. I could never have imagined he would look this good. Thank you
