The Winnie the Pooh Collection: A Tribute to Cherished Memories
Winnie the Pooh has always held a special place in my heart. Growing up, I felt a deep connection to the stories, particularly Christopher Robin. Out of all my toys, my teddy bear was my most cherished companion. I took Teddy everywhere with me, even on bike rides—you can see him tucked away safely in my backpack - we were inseparable! Like Christopher Robin with Pooh, my teddy bear was a constant companion and source of comfort.

Winnie the Pooh has always been more than just a story for me—it’s a symbol of love, family, and the magic of childhood. As a child, I spent countless hours with my mum, dad and brother reading the treasured Winnie the Pooh book, poring over the beautiful illustrations and sharing moments of joy and laughter. Those times spent reading are some of my most cherished memories, especially with my mum, who sadly passed away earlier this year. Losing her has been incredibly hard, and not a day goes by that I don’t miss her dearly.
To honour the precious moments we shared, I’ve created the Winnie the Pooh Collection. This collection is deeply personal to me—it’s a tribute to the bond my mum and I had and the many hours we spent lost in the world of Winnie the Pooh.
In my part-time job as a librarian, I see so many families sharing similar moments over these beloved stories by A.A. Milne. It’s heartwarming to witness generations of children, parents, and grandparents being touched by the magic of the Hundred Acre Wood. These stories, which have brought comfort and joy to so many, are a reminder of the timeless connections we form with our loved ones through literature.
Each piece in the Winnie the Pooh Collection is crafted with love and care, drawing inspiration from the classic illustrations that my mum and I adored. Whether it’s Pooh’s gentle warmth or the whimsy of the Hundred Acre Wood, I’ve poured my heart into creating designs that capture the joy and nostalgia of these treasured tales.
This collection is not just about jewellery—it’s about honouring those moments of connection and love. I hope that wearing a piece from this collection brings a little bit of that magic into your life, as it has into mine.
With love,
Rose
