Baccara Samhainfun - a Haute Heritage Bear

'Baccara Samhainfun' [pronounced sow-wen-fun] is a 6", antiqued, sparse, and matted black and gold mohair bear, treated and stained, hand tinted/painted in shades of tobacco, black and grey pigments in the 'haute heritage' - la de da' style. She is very well loved, plucked, weathered and worn to look like a bear from yester-year. Hand sewn, center seam head design, stuffed with poly and copper shot for a cozy weight in the hand. Embroidered nose and mouth. Her arms and legs are thread jointed and her head is wobble jointed for lots of movement making her nod more for a shy, "pick me up" appeal. This is a new pattern sporting a new more upturned nose. I am obsessed with getting just the right profile and I really like this one. Her eyes have been "treated" to look wet around her black imported glass inset eyes. Her lips have been treated as well. She wears a black ribbon on her head for a bit of la de da' flair. She also comes with a black rose I sculpted from clay as a prop. Her paw pads have been treated for a wet/worn/shabby texture....for a "well loved" appeal. She comes with a perfect little prop stand for more posing options and the ability to stand. 'Baccara' is my first Halloween bear, I did not want her to be too Halloween-ish so she can be enjoyed all year long. 'Baccara' is the name of one of a handful of classified 'black' colored roses. "Samhain", [pronounced sow-wen] is the ancient Celtic festival known to be the origin of Halloween. All of my designs are one of kind, from my own patterns, no two bears are alike. From my heart to your hand....I hope the La De Da' Bears bring you a smile. ~ ? ~ Thanks for looking at Baccara! ~ ? ~
