This vintage looking, two toned bear is made to order, with no patterns used. Each bear is unique in its own little way. They are all made from thick felt (100% recycled fiber), and stuffed with eco-poly fiber and fabric scraps, which makes these huggable bears very soft and cuddly. They measure about 18" tall and come in a variety of colors. There are tan, chocolate brown, creamy white, black and charcoal gray bears. In this picture, you see a black and tan bear. Each bear has a leather tag with rivets, which is hand stamped with the "Arden and James" logo. A custom leather collar can be requested with any name/text that you would like. This will have an additional cost of $5. These two-toned bears should be hand washed and sun dried to maintain its cute and cuddly demeanor. Please allow one week for the production and shipping of this cute, huggable bear. **Each bear saves about 3 plastic bottles from the landfill**

I am an industrial designer with a home workshop near Philadelphia, PA. I am a mother of two little boys, and a maker of things whenever I have a free hand.
I work with natural materials to create functional and meaningful pieces that will last a lifetime or longer. I allow the natural materials to "be themselves," or I let their natural characteristics become the character of the finished piece.
My pieces are sold in local boutiques and museum shops, as well as online.
