A "Bear-faced Lies” Miniature Mohair Bear is Constructed Using Traditional Techniques and from Traditional Materials.  It is not a synthetic plush, string-jointed  'pale imitation': 

 

It is a genuine miniaturisation of a traditional bear.

 

 

Made from Natural Mohair (no 'synthetic plush' is used)

 

Paws and Foot Pads are of English Leather/Suede-leather (again, no synthetic materials are used)

 

All Charlotte's Miniature Bears Are Fully Articulated:

A Proper Jointing System is Used  comprising metal discs and pins (no 'string joints')

 

Seams are Double Hand-stitched

 

Each and every toy's head has been hand-sculpted to give it its very own unique, sweet expression.

 

Each richly embroidered nose is waxed - up to ten times - and then hand-polished to give the little bear a healthy 'glow'.

 

For the eyes,  tiny,  semi-precious onyx beads are used.

 

The toys are filled with kapok (an all-natural fibre, pulled from the seed pods of the kapok tree - a superior filling material).  A little weight is then added to give substance

 

To sum up, these tiny toys are made to last... truly 'heirloom' quality
