'Sweet Princess Raina'

'Sweet Princess Raina' is a 8.5" Royal Fantasy ~ Artistique Bear by La De Da' Artisan Bears © FACIAL FEATURES 'Sweet Princess Raina' views the world through shiny, black, hand crafted glass eyes, made in Germany surrounded by my sculpted signature upper and lower eyelids filled with "wet" tears. Her nose has also been sculpted freehand. BODY She is five way jointed and was created in a variety of materials/colors including an antiqued smokey blue velvet and a champagne long curly German mohair and wisteria blue, velvet paw pads. Her legs are long with pointed toes. She can not stand on her own but can be propped or hung to "fly". Her arms are wired to enable her to be positioned into various positions. She was sewn entirely by hand by the artist, no machines, in hundreds of tiny stitches and is firmly stuffed with 100% virgin polyester and a substantial amount of copper shot in the chubby belly giving the bear a nice, weighty feeling in your hands. DETAILS 'Sweet Princess Raina' wears a removable paper-mâché'd, mixed media art crown that I designed just for her royally cute head. It is made from art papers and silk chiffon, glittered on the inside (sealed so it does not scatter) and lacquered. She also wears a beautiful Swarovski ® heart AB crystal on her chest. Her silk chiffon wings are in a variety of patterns, sewn in/not removable that I have custom printed and applied in layers with a bit of tulle. They are wonderfully ethereal, very much in the La De Da'© style. CARE INSTRUCTIONS Please keep your new bear from water, steamy bathrooms, moisture, etc. to avoid deforming the silk wings from their intended shape and texture. Your new bear will arrive with her wings wrapped carefully around her in tissue paper and ready for fluffing upon her arrival. 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 © make you smile.
