Icicle is a polar bear made from a lovely soft plush fur. He stands about 10" & is 18" long. He is 5 way cotter pin jointed with handmade alpaca felt pads. His face has been scissor sculpted & his nose area is hand shaded. He is incredibly tactile, I'm sure he took me so long to make because I just kept stroking him.Icicle is available for adoption, just e mail me for further details. He has been designed as an adult collectable, he is not a toy & is not suitable for children under 14 years old.

At each of these shows I will be selling raffle tickets for him & all proceeds will go to Help for Heros
