Gideon is now SOLD
Gideon is a traditional five joint teddy bear. The third bear this year and this time a little smaller at just over 14 inches tall.
He is made from a short yellowish corn colour mohair on a darker cloth. I have given the fur a fatigued finish, some thinned areas and some matting to give it a care worn appearance. The wool felt paw pads are very slightly shaded so that they don't look too new and the nose embroidery is similarly lightly fatigued.
Gideon is fully filled with excelsior wood wool, left a little loose in some areas to add to the effect of an old bear, care worn but not excessively. He has vintage boot button eyes.
His waistcoat is made from English wool tweed with five buttons. Lining and back are cotton. It is individually tailored to fit Gideon and edge stitched by hand to neaten the outline of the tweed. The cravat neck tie is very long enabling a number of different knots but it is supposed to look very crumpled and casual whatever the style. Keep scrolling after the following details to see more pictures of Gideon.
Gideon is 14.5 inches ( 37 cms ) standing and 10 inches ( 26 pms ) seated
Price £385.00 ( Now Sold )
