New Smaller Bears

The bears seem to have been getting larger and I am often asked if I will revive smaller designs like "Phatzoh". I am not too keen on going back without refreshing the ideas so I have been working on an slightly evolved Phatzoh and have a new bear which is around 14 inches. I have stuck with the double neck joint and he will appear in various guises over coming months. Edward and Bryan are the first and I have had fun with shades of blue for Bryan. The original Phatzoh pattern was a little shorter but I have decided to revise the proportions a little, he has the same well filled stomach and carefully shaped limbs and now he will both sit and stand quite comfortably. I have a very limited supply of the vintage boot buttons so some bears will have black glass eyes now, unless I am lucky enough to track down more of the lovely small vintage buttons.
