Ernst




This is Ernst, my latest "Attic Treasure" bear. He is 32 cm (12.6 inches) tall and One of a Kind. Ernst is made from a genuine vintage Mohair which is over 100 years old (between 1890 and 1900). I have spent many hours for ageing and distressing him to give the appearance of a bear with a loving past history. Ernst has black glass eyes, a threadbare black embroidered, waxed nose and a big hump. He is fully jointed, and filled with fiberfill.
