Old Jessie 18" by Sharon Barron, USA

£395.00

This old-looking, medium to large-sized, classic bear is made from a century-old sleigh blanket. The mohair is silver-tipped on dark brown. He has a centre seam head with black glass eyes, a waxed thread nose, hand-painted detail on the edges of his felt paw pads . . and a pronounced back hump. Softly filled with wood shavings, Old Jessie wears an old red linen and vintage brass sleigh bell pendant.
