Thembelani

Means 'Trust' in Ndebele

A dreamy garden scene unfolds on this teddy bear’s belly. A vibrant daisy-shaped flower in Liberty’s sunflower print, accentuated by cerise stitching, forms the focal point. The flower is surrounded by whimsical birds, butterflies, cats, petals and wispy strands. Note the eye-catching chicken motif on the back.

Thembelani was born on 31 October, 2011 in Cape Town - South Africa
