Vintage Velveteen Rabbit Plush Toy. Measures 9" in height. Excellent condition.
This vintage Velveteen Rabbit plush is a beautiful physical manifestation of Margery Williams’ timeless story. Standing 9 inches high, this piece captures the soulful, classic aesthetic of early-to-mid 20th-century toy design. Unlike modern, shaggy plushes, this rabbit is made from a traditional velveteen that offers a short, dense pile and a sophisticated hand-feel. The warm tan hue and contrasting pink ear linings evoke a sense of immediate nostalgia, making it look as though it stepped right out of a vintage storybook illustration.
In excellent condition, this plush has been remarkably well-preserved, with the fabric retaining its luster and the seams remaining tight and secure. Its timeless design avoids the cartoonish look of many contemporary toys, leaning instead into a "Heirloom" or "Nursery Whimsy" aesthetic. This rabbit is a perfect styling companion for a shelf of antique children’s books or as a soft accent in a room inspired by classic English cottage decor. Whether you are a collector of literary-themed toys or simply looking for a piece that embodies the magic of childhood, this Velveteen Rabbit is a sturdy and charming relic that truly feels "Real."
This item is vintage, approximately 30 years old.
