Lexi McIntee by Alice, Forget-me-Not Bears, England, made in 1999

£295.00

This lovely, small to medium-sized, classic bear has, like most Forget-me-Not bears, been made to look very well loved. Made of distressed and extensively hand-plucked, pale blond mohair, he has black glass eyes, a skip-stitched nose and three aged linen paw pads, the other being felt (as though restored). Heavily filled with a mixture of wood shavings and mineral granules, he wears an aged, pink silk ribbon neck bow. Number 3 of the edition, Lexi is as new with certificate . . . and has a particularly sweet expression.
