Safety information

My bears are made using traditional artisan methods, which means that they contain small parts, such as old-fashioned cotter pin joints (made from wood and metal); pellets (for adding that comforting weight and squish); glass eyes (for the old bear 'boot button' look and twinkle); and some (such as the bunnies) have metal wire inside so I can shape ears, paws etc. All this attention to detail adds to the authentic feel of my bears, but does mean that they are not children's toys. They are collectable artist bears made for older children from age 14 years to over 100.

Full description

Camelia is an elegant mohair bear embellished with genuine 1920s beaded appliqué, she truly is OOAK - 'one of a kind'. The glass beadwork was once a sash in the roaring twenties, but saved from the scrap heap it now decorates this lovely little bear - and Camelia loves the glamorous sparkle it gives her!

Made from pink-beige mohair, and wool felt for her pads, Camelia also has one wired paw which clasps a pretty French beaded flower handmade from glass beads and crystals.

Camelia will be mailed using Royal Mail Special Delivery Service.

Her eyes are made from black glass which resemble the traditional boot button eyes, and her head is hand embroidered with a satin stitched nose.

Camelia's arms, legs and neck are all moveable, being fitted with traditional cotterpin joints. Her body is stuffed with a mix of sheeps wool and wood wool, giving it a satisfying firmness and a slight old-fashioned 'scrunch' sound when handled.

Her tummy also has some pellets added which are made from recycled plastic bottles; this gives her a little bit of added weight and squish. I have added some extra crystals to her body between the vintage appliqué for a little bit of extra sparkle.

This beautifully unique bear is looking for her forever home. Could you be the person to provide it?
