Brigitte RiveBrigitte Rive
Introducing the loveable Golly character to you and the next generation of traditional toy lovers.

Florence Upton created the Golly back in 1895 for her childrens books. He was just one of a cast of toy characters but proved so popular, he became the main character in a series, "Golly and the Two Dutch Dolls". He was a colourful, kind, loving personality who had many appealing adventures with his doll friends.

Brigitte Rive and her husband Gareth create nostalgic soft collectable dolls. Brigitte Rive has worked alongside the internationally acclaimed Teddy Bear artist, Robin Rive for the past 12 years and this year has decided to create her own label.

Brigittes "Collectable" gollies are designed and handmade in New Zealand

Robin and Bryan from Robin Rive RetireRobin and Bryan from Robin Rive Retire
A message from Robin and Bryan ...

"This year 2008 is the 35th Anniversary of Countrylife New Zealand, founded by me in 1973.

After long consideration and much soul searching, Bryan and I have decided to discontinue manufacturing Robin Rive bears. This is with much regret especially as many of you have been customers for many years. As some of you know, Bryan had a serious operation recently so this has lent some urgency to our decision. Brigitte and Gareth will be continuing with the gollies under their own brand, ‘Brigitte Rive’. We wish to thank you for many years of wonderful support and to hope that 2008 will bring you good health and happiness."

In february 2008 we will be launching the latest Gollies from Brigitte Rive, all bears and gollies by Robin Rive on our website are subject to availability as they cannot be re-ordered. Select here to see the latest selection of Teddy Bears in stock now! Subject to availability,
