The House Of Genista

Antique/Vintage Teddy Bears And Toys From Early 1900's - 1960's

WELCOME to The House Of Genista Antique/Vintage Collection, "Attic Treasures"  where I aim to offer a good selection of mid 20th century Teddy Bears, and other Animals/Toys from worn and well-loved to good and even mint condition. The House Of Genista is the perfect place for starting or adding to a collection or simply finding "A Special Old Friend!"

There is no antique quite so huggable and endearing as an old Teddy Bear, and even today, collecting old Teddy Bears remains an International Passion.

Few people forget their first Teddy Bear, and this memory is often the start of a passion for collecting Bears in later life. A Teddy Bear is your childhood wrapped up in faded, worn out, patchy and balding fur and as such he commands affection and respect long after he has been outgrown. A Teddy Bear remains just that - a Bear, even when most of him has fallen off or worn away with time and love, they can lose just about everything from fur to eyes to limbs and still maintain their dignity and worth.

We here at The House Of Genista believe that a Teddy Bear grows more alive, beautiful and charismatic with age.
