Berta
by Emma - Louise Braiden
9 inches (22.8 centimeters)

This is my latest experiment. It seems that experimental bears is all I do at the moment!

Berta was my attempt to make a more affordable bear for collectors, by allowing more of my attention to be focused on her facial detail rather than her limbs.

Berta is jointed with a firm t-pin in her neck. Her body is a one piece design with turned out toes, bell-shaped arms and a slight back hump. The body is stuffed softly with polyfill and stainless steel beads to give her a lovely floppy weight. She cannot sit/stand by herself, but can sit/stand propped up against a shelf or another bear, or popping out of a basket or pretty box.

Berta is made from a stunning distressed hand dyed plum-grey mohair with a baby-pink backing. (Please note that my camera has not really correctly captured her colouring at all. The backing is slightly more pink, and the fur slightly less dark then shown). She looks out through deluxe black glass eyes with suede whites. She has hand shaded eyes, inner ears and face with a hand embroidered nose in ivory cotton with a tiny touch of gold shimmer to match her pendant.

Berta is a one of a kind bear, and the very first in this new concept for me. Her adoption fee includes registered airmail worldwide. (Ordinary airmail can be selected if you'd like to save a little more money).
