'Maman et Dolly'

'Maman et Dolly' is a 6.5" teary eyed, clay sculpted detail, hand sewn La De Da' Artisan Bear. FACIAL FEATURES 'Maman' (Mommy) views the world through shiny black premium glass eyes with hand sculpted clay eyelids, accented with the La De Da' signature wet tear accents for a dimensional and soulful gaze. The lower eyelids are filled with a tear medium giving a wet, lifelike, forlorn expression. The nose has also been hand sculpted,stained and glossed for natural effect. The mouth is embroidered and treated to shimmer slightly. BODY She is five way jointed and is created in a wispy taupe mohair. She was sewn entirely by hand, (no machine sewing) and is stuffed with poly, and copper shot and the highest quality lavender buds in the belly. The lavender is 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. In addition, non-culinary Lavender is a natural repellent to moths, insects and other critters, like mice, helping preserve and protect your La De Da' bear for many years. ACCESSORIES 'Maman' wears several layers of hand dyed silk fabrics and lace made into a pretty and feminine head piece. She also wears a silk organza fabric ribbon bow around her neck. Her little vintage porcelain dolly wears a tea stained dress and matching silk ribbon for a a bit of la de da' flair. She cannot stand on her own but can 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' Artisan Bears bring you a smile.
