This fellow is a bit different than most of the bears I make in that he has a more grown up look to him. He is made out of a wonderful Schulte mohair, which is dense and curly. The color is what they call �zotty�, which is a darker backed mohair with lighter tips. I have not seen this mohair offered in quite some time. Thank goodness I am a pack rat and have quite a large stash of mohair which I puchased many years ago. Since he has a more serious and grown up expression than a lot of my bears, I gave him a simple gold pendant with turquoise inlays.

I have done very extensive scissor and needle sculpting to his face and have added some color to bring out his features. He has hand blown glass eyes, which I hand painted, and to which I have added a single upper eyelid and double lower eyelids. His nose is hand embroidered with pearl cotton.

The bear is about 18" standing (which he does not do by himself) and 12" sitting. He is five way jointed with hard board disks, locks nuts and a cotter pin in his neck. He has a pouch of copper BB�s in his bottom for a bit of added weight and has ultrasuede paw pads which have some subtle shading added. His arms are also wired to give him more pose-ability. As with all my creations, he does not have a name. Since he is being adopted, it is up to his new mother or father to give him a name they deem appropriate.

My soft sculptures are adult collectibles and not suitable for small children and are made with the finest materials and are designed and completely hand made by me. All of my creations are one-of-a-kind and take me several days to complete, as I am meticulous in my construction and detail. I will not offer any soft sculpture for sale until I am completely happy with it.
