This little fellow called Nathaniel loves to play, and his big eyes just beg you to come over and join him. He enjoys his toys and friends for many hours a day, and at the end of each day falls soundly asleep in his warm den.
Nathaniel was carefully made by hand using long pile upholstery velvet (from the Malden Mills company). He is filled with mohair, a lot of joy, and glass and steel granules. The granules give him the ideal weight to sit and stand comfortably.
Nathaniel looks at you through his pair of black glass eyes. I embroidered his nose. His paw pads were made of ultra suede. I created a cotton nightcap with a tiny bell for him. He wears a silk bow around his neck and heart-shaped buttons on his belly.
Thanks to his 5 joints, Nathaniel easily moves his arms, legs and head.
His sizes are 2 2/8" when he is sitting, and 3" while standing.
Nathaniel was born in a non-smoking home, and comes - with his wooden toy cow on wheels - in a nice box, with a card containing some of his characteristics handwritten by me, the artist.
Nathaniel is on auction on eBay until the 26th of July, 2009 (20:00:00 PDT).

Thank you all for the lovely comments. Nathaniel was adopted by a respected Bright Bears collector last night, so I am happy to say he will live in a warm home forever...
