Ben is an original collectable Teddy Bear
hand made by me, Sasha Kleshcheva, in 2023.
He is 4⅛" (10.5 cm) tall and fully 5-way jointed, with cotter-pin joints in his neck, arms and legs.
Price guide: £53

Ben is made of sparse mohair with faux leather inserts
on his paws and inside ears,
and filled with polyfill and fine woodwool.

He has English glass eyes set on felt inserts,
hand-stitched nose, mouth...

...and claws, and a special Sasha's Bears label on his paw.

Ben is a little clumsy
but he is determined
to overcome this drawback.

The reason why this is
very important to him
is that Ben really wants
to become a tailor!

So far, he has managed
to make himself
one elegant bow tie,
but he is certain that soon enough
he will be able to produce
a proper three-piece suit.

Ben is a proud owner of a label
with Sasha's Bears logo
and a Teddy-Bear Passport.

Ben was adopted at the 2023 Goring Christmas Fair.

NON-WASHABLE!

One of the exercises that Ben is practising to overcome his clumsiness
involves balancing on cotton spools
