Tilio by Jerome and Colette Maillot, Vintage Bears, France

£325.00

Small to medium-sized, this finely made bear has an aged ribbon down his front. This unties to reveal a lined, striped cotton ticking pocket inside. Made of hand-dyed and distressed, mottled blue mohair, Tilio has deeply set black glass eyes, a waxed thread nose and airbrushed detail on his face, as well as on the edges of his/her felt paw pads. His head and limbs are filled with a mixture of wood shavings and mineral granules.
