We've just sold this adorable and rather huge Jellycat Piper Elephant to a website customer http://www.retro36.com/shop/38-subject/93-animals/96-elephant/392-jellycat-piper-huge-elephant-soft-toy and it got us thinking while we carefully packed him up. We love selling our soft toys but we do get a little sad when we see them go. They're our friends and we love them all dearly. We know they're going to a home that will cherish them but we can't help but feel a little sense of sadness. An eloquent quote from one of fav films perfectly expresses our thoughts.

Hi peeps, welcome to the first episode of Retroworld. This will be a weekly video show where we’ll be introducing new products, hot product lines and latest news when appropriate. We hope you like the video and let us know what you think.

At Retro 36 we’re all going a little gaga for an irresistible range of cuddly toys by Jellycat called Cordy Roys. We really can’t get enough of them and hopefully you peeps will feel the same. Sometimes we wish we were little again so we wouldn’t have to think up excuses of why we appreciate the wonder that is ‘the cuddly toy’.

Their name is inspired by the material they are crafted from… corduroy. You don’t find many cuddly toys made from corduroy which is a shame because it’s a wonderfully tactile material and much softer than you might think. Jellycat really excel at developing quirky and lovable toys crafted in the most gorgeous materials.
