Sylvanian Families Butterglove Rabbits
Collectable and Pre-Owned Sylvanian Families.
Butterglove Ivory Rabbit Family
The Buttergloves date back to the first Sylvanians in Japan, being only released as part of
sets in the UK and USA. A current set is bathtime of baby with mother Cecile and baby Donna, Cecile
also appears in the Village Gift Shop set. An earlier release features Jonathan and Tabitha in the Wedding Bells
set (2012). Earlier figures have included grandparents, father, brother and other babies. They were marketed
as the Dandelions in North America, so the actual names and biographies used may derive from them and not be
the same as UK releases. A complicated family, any more history is always welcome.
