The Art Group websites As well as the range being a delightfully nostalgic and quintessentially British look back at days gone by, Paddington is obviously a red-hot property right now. The heart-warming video with Paddington and The Queen was live streamed around the world, with 13.5 million live viewers and 2 million YouTube views in just one day! It has received global press coverage, making the front pages of the following day’s national press, including The Sunday Times. Paddington and The Queen were also a social media phenomenon with a staggering 500M+ reach across 146 countries, becoming stars of Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and TikTok. That’s one popular bear, and his popularity shows no sign of subsiding - Pyramid suggests retailers get on board! Also new at The Art Group is the fabulous range of zodiac mug and coaster gift sets, which have been exclusively designed by artist Summer Thornton. These
stunning sets have been created by one of the most popular artists in The Art Group family, and make the perfect gifting option as they come packaged in their own coordinated gift box. Made from bone china, not only do the mugs look out of this world (thanks to the creative skills of the artist), but they are the perfect vessel from which to enjoy the perfect cuppa! Both Pyramid and The Art Group have an extensive portfolio of products, with new ranges, artists and licences being added on an almost-weekly basis. The websites are well worth exploring – they are a real Aladdin’s Cave with products to suit all budgets and markets. Alternatively, the Pyramid and Art Group teams are equally happy to chat through their extensive portfolios and offer their insight into just the right products to complement your range.
