Collaboration Bear: Harrison - 13" handmade mohair artist bear- OOAK

'Harrison'
13" (34cm)

- a 'Collaboration Bear' ( Initiated by 'The bear lady at Forbes' - Joan Neowhouse, and completed in remembrance by Emma's Bears following her passing).

Collaboration Bears are a completely unique range of bears for Emma's Bears. They are an eclectic assortment of bears and animals in all shapes and sizes, and all types of fur, in various states of completion, and cut from patterns and designs that are totally unknown/unfamiliar to us. We've committed to completing these little souls after their original crafter passed away, and her family were unsure what should happen to all her unfinished work.

This particularly handsome bear is cut from a textured traditional brown mohair, that gives him quite a scruffy bear cub appeal. We've given him a pair of our hand-painted glass eyes in a green/gold combo with hand sculpted eyelids. his nose has been hand embroidered in black DMC Perle cotton thread

Harrison has been fully jointed (5-ways) and is stuffed with polyfill and a little bit of steel and glass shot to give him some weight. His paw pads are cut from a darker brown faux suede and we've shaped them using our pulled-toe technique. He features silk-dye shading to his face and paws, and wears a gorgeous gold-tone multi-coloured butterfly pendant around his neck. 

Harrison is a one of a kind artist bear. He comes with his Emma's Bears /Collaboration Bears identification tag. The rest of his friends can be found in their own listings.
