Vintage Style Teddy Bear /Hand Stitched /Embroidered Details /Reworked And Recycled Materials
this bear needs a home. each bear is one of a kind, made just for you. i don't use patterns, so each bear has a little different personality. they have a really cute vintage look to them, like you found them in your grandparents' attic. made from thick, nappy felt (from recycled fibers) in: vintage tan, chocolate brown, cream, or black. let me know which one you would like. hand stitched round safety plastic eyes and embroidered linen nose head, arms, and legs are jointed stuffed with eco-poly fiber and fabric scraps about 12" tall *not intended for children under 3 *not pictured, but each bear has a leather tag riveted to its ear. the tag is stamped with the "arden and james" logo. i can add a custom leather collar for you, with a name/any text you would like. just send me a message and let me know what you would like. I will create a custom listing for you and it will cost $5. allow 2 weeks (should be less) for me to make your bear and ship it out

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.
