Paris is just a little darling. She has been made using some of our gorgeous dense Schulte 'super curls' mohair we've hand-dyed in two experimental colours - a dusky purply/lilac on a slightly darker backing, and a vanilla/peach coloured pile on a mottled deeper peach backing. Both of these pieces were so unusual, and so pretty together that we just had to bring them to life! We have created two little bears from these colours, both 12" tall - but with different colour placement. This listing is for 'Paris' who has the lower-set ears, and half of her body/limbs in each of the colours. ('Diva' is panda-style colour placement, and she can be found in her own listing). 

Paris is fully T-pin jointed and stuffed softly with polyfill, glass shot and a hint of steel shot. She looks out through black glass eyes and has a hand embroidered perle cotton nose in a matching dusky-lilac colour. Her hands and feet are shaven back mohair to show off the backing colours of both the darker and lighter mohair, and feature 3D pad detailing. She wears a cute glittery peach/pink crown on a clip (so fully removable) by her ear, and a double sparkling faux-diamond and gold-tone necklace set around her neck. 

The true colours of her unique fur have been quite tricky to capture, but in the photos you'll see how she appears in three different settings - inside, outside in the shade and outside in the sunlight. 

Paris is a one of a kind artist bear.
