This fabulous old character is The Duchess – a very tatty old ted indeed but just adorable. She is 20 inches tall & would have been fully jointed but her head is now stitched in place. Her other joints are fairly loose but all intact & strong and she sits fine. She is a mix of woodwool & kapok stuffed. Her pads are serviceable – there are holes in the felt – & she has socks to cover & protect her feet. Her mohair is non-existent & the patches cover large holes with exposed kapok. The fabric to her face has darkened with age. She also has rudimentary coverings to her arms. Her face is adorable – someone has given her a big smile which I love. As you can see she is FAR FROM PERFECT but she is a wonderful character. She will come as pictured in her pretty dress with beads & is quite the lady – or should I say Duchess? – in her finery. A lovely old bear looking for a home with someone who appreciates a tattier old character with plenty of charm xxx (please take a good look at the pictures before buying & read the description carefully!) 
Please be aware I am a lover of the tattier old teds with oodles of character so bear this mind before buying – no bear will be perfect – far from it – but I guarantee they are all perfectly adorable. I try to list every bear accurately – if there is anything I forget I can only apologise – I try to put plenty of photos up so please take a good look as these form part of the description. I will happily ship overseas but anything over 40 must be tracked & insured xxx
Due to this dreadful virus my post office is very unpredictable so I may use Hermes tracked. I will ship overseas and will of course use the post office for that shipping but it may take me a little longer to get around to it (we are talking a few days longer – not weeks!) Stay safe everyone xxx
