Artist Bear, Aardbei by Wayneston Bears

Aardbei means 'Strawberry' in Dutch.

Aardbei  is approximately 12 inches tall standing, made from beautiful soft Alpaca. He is completely designed and hand crafted by me, Wayne Lim from Singapore.

Many hours have been spent to give him an endearing face. His face is needle felted and each strand of fur is individually rooted, needle sculpted, shaded and trimmed with razor and scissors to give him a Wayneston Bears Signature style. His nose is needle sculpted, harden, painted and sealed. Shadings have been given to him to enhance his look.

Aardbei views the world with his realistic glass doll eyes. He is 4-way jointed at his limbs using hardboard disks with hardware. Head, spine, arms, and legs have locline armature as well, these make him very poseable.

Foot and paw pads are very detailed and took hours to create, made of ultra suede with needle sculpted techniques. His claws are individually hand sculpted and shaded. Aardbei  has a cute little tail too! He is filled with polyfill, silicon pellets, crushed garnets, and much love. Aardbei wears a golden rutiled pendant and comes with a stalk of strawberries. A Wayneston Bears suede tag is sewn on his back.

This bear/creation has been made by me, Wayne Lim from design to completion. This bear/creation is meant for the adult collector and not to be given to a child. A swing tag with its specifications and a certificate of authenticity will be attached together. All creations come from a smoke-free home.
