Product Description
Please read all my shipping policies before ordering this unique teddy bear.

Penny is a limited edition miniature mohair teddy bear designed and hand stitched by teddy bear artist, Shelley K. Bossert of Ursa Minor Miniatures. There were five bears in this edition and this is the last of the five.

Penny is made from copper colored, hand woven and hand dyed mohair. There was only enough of this mohair woven to make five teddy bears. This is the last of the series of five. Penny is 6.5" tall and has moveable wobble joints. She is stuffed with polyester fiberfill and weighted with steel shot for a heavy-in-your-hand life-like feel. Her nose, mouth, claw marks and brows are embroidered with Spanish made Finca pearl cotton. Her eyes are black, hand blown German glass. Her paw pads and inner ears are made from elk skin suede. Like all my bears, Penny, sports my trademark star in her paw pad.

Penny is a one-of-a-kind teddy bear designed and hand stitched by Shelley K. Bossert of Ursa Minor Miniatures. Like all of my teddy bears, this bear is not a toy and is not intended for small children. Small parts present a choking hazard.

In addition to personal checks and US Postal Money orders, I accept PayPal. Shipments paid for by check are held until the check clears.

I do not pad my shipping charges but do pass actual costs on to the buyer. ArtFire requires that I pick a number for shipping so I picked the least expensive, slow-boat-to-China rate offered by the United States Postal Service. Secondary shipping charges depend on what else you are purchasing. If you are purchasing more than one item at a time from my studio, please e-mail for shipping charges. If you wish to choose a shipping method other than the USPS to a US address, the cost is more. That said, U.S. or Canadian purchasers may choose the U.S. Postal System, UPS or Fed Ex. but please request a shipping quote before making a purchase.

International purchasers may only use U.S. Global Priority Mail. Costs for Global Priority shipments vary by destination and package weight. Please contact me for a shipping quote before making a purchase. I combine shipping costs automatically.

Insurance is optional but I accept no responsibility for damage to or loss of uninsured shipments.
Inspiration/Story Behind This Product
I commissioned the color and style of this mohair from a wonderfully talented artist who is no longer weaving and dyeing mohair. The design of the bear came first but needed the right texture and color of fur to make it work. Penny is the result.
