Pitkin
28inches
Welcome to my latest one of kind mohair bear
Pitkin
Pitkin measures an extremely substantial 28 inches high from his paws to his ears and sits at 18 inches.
He has a hand clipped & plucked muzzle
He has beautiful black English glass eyes
His nose has been hand embroidered with rich chocolate silks and then snipped & hard waxed
Pitkin really is a lovely and kindly distressed antiqued bear
Pitkin has been created from my own especially dyed German Schulte mohair which is world renowned to be the finest.
It is a beautiful semi sparse mohair which is as soft as a cloud. It has tinges of silvers and charcoals and I have carefully hand plucked and colour washed it to give a really nice ancient look and appeal which is in keeping with dearly loved old teds.
Pitkin has a large amount of 'worn' patches to his body and a large amount of overstiching.
He has a centre seam head and his arms are the long hockey stick style which is in keeping with the early earliest of hugs
Pitkin is five way jointed with nut & bolt joints to his arms & legs
He is very firmly stuffed and heavily weighted in such a way that respresents an ancient and well loved hug.
He sits beautifully.
All in all Pitkin is a beautiful bear with that love me hug me factor.
He is looking for a nice home just in time for Christmas and would not be out of place joining a collection of antique and vintage bears

Welcome to my latest one of kind mohair bear
Pitkin
Pitkin measures an extremely substantial 28 inches high from his paws to his ears and sits at 18 inches.
He has a hand clipped & plucked muzzle
He has beautiful black English glass eyes
His nose has been hand embroidered with rich chocolate silks and then snipped & hard waxed
Pitkin really is a lovely and kindly distressed antiqued bear
Pitkin has been created from my own especially dyed German Schulte mohair which is world renowned to be the finest.
It is a beautiful semi sparse mohair which is as soft as a cloud. It has tinges of silvers and charcoals and I have carefully hand plucked and colour washed it to give a really nice ancient look and appeal which is in keeping with dearly loved old teds.

Jingle the clock keeper
13 inches
Twas the night before Christmas
and all through the house
nothing was stiring not even a mouse
except for one
Jingle the Christmas mouse
This is a very special magical little mouse who is the clock keeper for Father Christmas.
Father Christmas needed somebody small and special who could wizz up inside the grandfather clock with a special key to ensure that timings were kept absolutely perfect for that special 12 o'clock hour on Chritmas Eve.
Jingle was chosen for this very important position and was presented with the unique key to the clock by Father Christmas himself.
Jingle measures 13 inches high from his toes to his fluffy little ears
He has a hand clipped muzzle & body but retains his fluffy tummy & feet to keep warm against the Lapland chill
He has beautiful black English glass eyes
His nose is a hand sculpted clay nose, he has an open mouth with two little clay teeth and finely crafted whiskers.
His tail is fully wired and has a fluffy little end matching his ears which I may add is exclusive to the magical breed of mice living in Lapland
I have created Jingle from my own hand dyed German Schulte mohair which is world renowned to be the finest made. It has a lovely silvery finish and a cloud soft texture.
Jingle is five way jointed.
He is very firmly stuffed and nicely weighted.
He sits beautifully.
As with all of my bears Jingle is strictly limited to an edition 1 of 1 they are designed and carefully hand crafted in Norfolk by myself making each individual hug unique in everyway
Jingle comes complete with his certificate of authenticity signed by myself, his very unique story, sewn in tag & swing tag, bow tie and large Christmas clock key from Father Christmas.
