Personalised Orangutan Teddy Bears: Meet Oscar
Oscar the orangutan is not your average bear. His gloriously shaggy, rust-coloured fur, broad expressive face, and smooth cream tummy make him one of the most characterful bears in the Heart & Sew collection, and that cream tummy panel is the perfect canvas for a name, a date, a photo, or a message printed in full colour directly onto the bear. Whether you’re choosing him for a new baby who deserves something with a bit more personality than the usual, a birthday gift for an animal-loving child, or just a present for someone who’d roll their eyes at a standard bear, Oscar has a way of winning people over.

Frequently Asked Questions
What personalisation options are available on Oscar the orangutan?
Oscar can be personalised with a name, a short message, a date, or a photo, all printed in full colour onto his cream tummy panel using sublimation printing. On some versions, the feet offer a second print area for an extra line of text, such as a date of birth or a short message. The cream tummy gives a clean, generous surface that shows off the print brilliantly, and the contrast with his shaggy orange fur makes it stand out in the best possible way.
What occasions is Oscar best suited to?
He's a natural for new baby gifts, particularly if you're after something with a bit more character than a traditional bear. He works brilliantly as a birthday present for animal-loving kids, and he's got enough charm and presence to sit happily on an adult's desk or shelf without looking out of place. If you're buying for someone who insists they're not a bear person, Oscar has a habit of changing minds.
What does the personalised print look like on this bear?
The personalisation is sublimation printed directly into the fabric of Oscar's cream tummy panel, which means the colours are vivid, the image is sharp, and the print is part of the bear rather than sitting on top of it. There's no fading, no peeling, and nothing that looks like an afterthought. The cream panel itself is smooth and flat, sitting front and centre between all that fabulous shaggy fur, so whatever you choose to put on it really does take centre stage.
How does the photo upload process work?
If you'd like a photo printed on Oscar, you can upload your image when you place your order. Don't worry if the photo isn't studio quality: our team manually edits and optimises every single image before it goes to print, adjusting colours, improving lighting, and making sure everything looks its best on the bear. A real person works on your photo, not an automated process, so the finished result is as good as it can possibly be.
Is Oscar the same price as other Heart & Sew bears?
