Tundra

Made exclusively for EBears Show, my polar bear cub named Tundra has been made with much love and attention to detail. Wearing his hand knitted scarf to keep out the winter chill, Tundra is made from the softest white alpaca, with contrasting paws and claws, and needle felted face/nose, his soulful eyes just melt your heart.

Contact the Artist

As a self-taught soft sculpture artist, I am proud to have created many award-winning bears since 2007.
Located on the beautiful and pristine south coast of NSW, Australia - I spend a lot of time and thought designing my creations to ensure each one has its own unique personality, from the smallest detail in hand-painting glass eyes, using advanced techniques and creating unique and original costumes - each one is a joy for me to create as a one-of-a-kind original piece for you to love and cherish.

TUNDRA

Tundra is an OOAK polar bear hand sewn from soft, dense pile white alpaca.
I have named him after the vast and awesome Artic wilderness.
He is a chunky boy, weighted with steel shot in his tummy and filled with polyester.
His face and eyelids have been needle felted, using only quality Australian merino wool, which I have then shaded using pastels. His nose was also needle felted in a contrasting beige coloured merino wool, which I sanded and sealed multiple times.
Tundra’s trapunto style paws are created from a silver grey ultra suede, and his claws were made by me using baked clay. Shaded using pastels in steel and grey arctic inspired colours.
I have hand knitted his chunky scarf from variegated wool, to keep him warm and toasty, which features Pom poms at each end.
Tundra is designed to be seated, and measures 28cm seated.
Like all Nikkel Bears, Tundra has been made in a smoke free home, and will arrive on your doorstep beautifully packaged and secure.
Postage/insurance are not included in purchase price and are shown separately.

Introducing Bingzi (pronounced Bing-zher), which translated from Chinese means wheaten pancake.
My panda Bingzi has been created from the softest dense pile alpaca in snowy white and a soft biscuit colour. He is designed to sit, and measures 22cm seated.
Filled with steel shot for a nice weight, and polyester.
He has a locline spine which runs through his body and into his head, allowing him to be posed in lots of whimsical poses. His arms have been wired, and his arms and legs are attached using locknuts/bolts.
I created his paws from a tan coloured ultra suede, and also created his claws from baked clay.
Subtle shading on his paws and face was done using pastels.
His face, eyelids and nose have been needle felted with quality Australian merino wool, and his nose has been sanded and sealed.
I have made his little Chinese emperor collar from yellow and gold coloured polyester fabric, this can be removed using the frog-clasp in front. A gorgeous silken tassel hangs from the frog-clasp.
Like his name suggests, Bingzi also comes with a bouquet of faux wheat.
Bingzi has been made in a smoke free home, and will arrive on your doorstep beautifully packaged and secure.
Price does not include postage/insurance which is is shown separately in this listing.
If you are purchasing within Australia, please contact me to arrange posts adjustment.
Shipping is worldwide.
