'Joyeux le Classique' a BearFest at Tiffany's seri

'Joyeux le Classique' is a 9" La De Da' Artisan Bear. Joyeux views the world through shiny black premium glass eyes with meticulously hand sculpted eyelids (upper and lower) accented with sculpted wet tear accents for a dimensional and soulful gaze. The clay is sculpted around the glass eye and into the mohair before the tear medium is added to build dimension custom to the head shape and eye contour. The pool of tears creates a life like element to the eyes and is a La De Da' signature design element. Her nose has also been hand sculpted and stained in multiple colors for a leather-like effect. The sculpting around the eyes creates a truly one of a kind expression to each bear as no two sculpts are ever alike. Her mouth is embroidered and treated to shine ever so slightly. Her legs/feet are a modified hockey stick design with short, baby like arms that hang gracefully and tight to her sides. She is created in a feathery plush hand dyed, two tones of our Tiffany Box blue mohair. She has been treated and hand tinted/painted in gray and blush. Her head is a center seam head design. Her face has been needle sculpted to create a slightly upturned nose featuring a cute profile. Her tummy is extra tubby. Her foot paws have wool hand dyed paw pads. She is stuffed with Poly, copper shot (belly) and the highest quality lavender buds, imported from Provence, France. Lavender is a La De Da' signature element added to all of my bears to enhance the "hug" experience with a gentle, therapeutic natural scent. Squeezing the buds helps release the scent, so you get a little bit of relaxation with every hug. She is a lovely weight, under one pound. Her small ears are chubby and stuffed for a round full effect. Her arms, legs and head are disk jointed. She wears an elegant collar of soft white tulle and a matching bow held with three faux pearl pins for a bit of la de da' flair. She can not stand on her own but can be propped. All of my designs are one of kind, no two bears are alike. From my heart to your hand....I hope the La De Da' Bears bring you a smile.
