'Sir Rutherford Le Genteel'

'Sir Rutherford Le Genteel'

Handsome 'Sir Rutherford Le Genteel' is an 8.5" inch (9" with hat) hand sewn and painted La De Da' Artisan Bear. FACIAL FEATURES 'Sir Rutherford Le Genteel' 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. BODY He is five way jointed and is created in a feathery soft Helmbold viscose. The entire body is meticulously painted and heat set in a textile watercolor, leaving the hand of the viscose very soft. He is painted in pale lavender and soft gray. He was sewn entirely by hand and is stuffed with poly, copper shot for weight and the highest quality lavender buds in the belly. He is an old style design with very long hockey stick arms and legs. His snout is long and his neck joint is wobble jointed for a more "nodding", vintage posture. 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 He wears a hand designed shabby ascot accented with a black bead faux tie tack for a bit of la de da' flair. It is made in a delicate voile with pleats and lace, custom printed with my own Parisian ephemera artwork for interest, uniqueness and texture. I also fashioned a paper clay top hat for a bit of whimsy. He can not stand on his 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.
