Basil

By Helen Dekker
Size: 15″ , handmade, one of a kind
Category: Bears

Basil is an OOAK bear, made of an rusty colour, antique and rare vintage fabric. He has tapered arms and is five-way jointed and is firmly filled with sawdust and steel granulate. The name 'Basil' means 'King', there is something royal about him, that's why he got the name Basil.

Basil has a stitched nose, mouth and paws. The fabric he is made of was already distressed and I distressed his paws aswell as his footsoles to to make it all complementary. This has given him a fiercly hugged look. Basil wears a antique ribbon in an olive colour around his neck, decorated with a copper bell. Made in a smoke free home. Basil has found a loving home in Australia.

Materials:
- Antique and very rare rusty brown fabric
- Glass dark topaz eyes
- Discs and joints
- Sawdust
- Steelgranulate
- Antique ribbon in olive colour
- Copper bell as decoration

My bears are made in a smoke free home and NOT suitable for children under the age of 12 years, because of small parts.
