About the Bears

All of the Raspbearies are hand made by me of the best materials I have available. I work in mohair and
alpaca with very few exceptions. All of the designs are mine with the exception of a few purchased
accessories or clothing articles. I often make accessories for the theme bears to get the correct
proportions.

I use both traditional jointing methods (all 5 joints) and the looser 'wobble'  joint in many bears. All
bears have German glass eyes, sometimes with Ultrasuede® eyelids. The paw pads are also Ultrasuede®  
and sometimes sculpted. A few bears have Ultrasuede® claws. Some bears sport skeletons or armatures
of either Loc-Line® or Flexlimb® which allows posing. A few bears have a unique neck joint using
Loc-Line® which allows them to tilt their head to keep an eye on you!

Please don't hesitate to email any questions you might have about construction, accessories or special
requests.
