'Mercury'

This spectacular ball of fluff is 'Mercury', a big bear with a seriously cute look.

Mercury has been made using our 'Belarius' design, and cut from a piece of our new 'Tibetan Fox' super soft faux fur. The colouring on this fur is so beautiful and unusual that we've tried to photographed Mercury in a few different settings. It has been raining here all week though, so the lighting outside is a little strange. 

Mercury has hand-pulled and shaded 3D toes made from more of the trimmed back faux fur with a furry heal. Please note that due to this curved-arm design he doesn't have hand-pads, and the arms are designed to be tucked into his lap.

Mercury looks out through big black glass and has a hand embroidered black perle cotton nose. We've stuffed him a little more softly then usual, so he is able to give lovely cuddles. He does sit beautifully with those long, heavy, curved arms in his lap, but can be posed in a number of ways - he just can't stand as his legs are bent. 

Mercury is a one of a kind artist bear as made by Emma's Bears. We will be offering kits for this bear if you'd like to have a go at making one like him yourself - but he will be the only one ever made by us here at Emma's Bears.
