'Ashby du Passé'

'Ashby du Passé'

'Ashby du Passé' is an 8" (20.3 centimeters) hand sewn Tender Echoes. La De Da' Artisan Bear. She is the second in this new series of bears. FACIAL FEATURES 'Ashby du Passé' views the world through shiny black premium glass eyes that have been distressed slightly for an aged look. The nose has also been loosely stitched, purposely treated for a well loved look. BODY She is five way jointed and is created in a matted, stained, multi-distressed, semi-sparse mohair in two shades of stained tea and a muddy rusty/red coloration. She was sewn entirely by hand, (no machine sewing) and is loosely stuffed with poly, and copper shot and the highest quality lavender buds in the belly. Most of her torso is filled with French Lavender and feels and sounds crunchy like an old bear. She is "shlumpy" in the middle where you can move around the combination of stuffing to pose her in different ways. The lavender is imported from the Mont Ventoux region of 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 helping preserve and protect your La De Da' Artisan Bear for many years. DETAILS 'Ashby du Passé' wears a very shabby shoulder wrap tied with a poetry stained, distressed ribbon for a bit of la de da' flair. She also has a very tiny vintage Holy Rosary I found in an antique shop on her chest. Throughout her body, she is wears her life stripes of mended stitches and loose threads. 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. May God bless you always.
