Jonette Stabbert, originally from New York, has lived in the Netherlands since 1970 where she operates the POPPETTE Doll Studio. A life long designer, her bear-making evolved from dollmaking. Jonette was staff designer for the Dutch teddy bear publication BeerBericht and has written and designed for a number of craft publications in the US and the Netherlands. Some of her bears have been manufactured under license by the renowned German firm of SIGIKID.

Quicksilver is proud to offer these bears from the hand of the artist.

Thomas Size: 25 cm/ 10 inches. This handsome bear is unusual because he is made from distressed oatmeal colored cotton plush, which makes him look old, and stuffed with special European cotton filling which is quite heavy. He has a soft-sculpted dark brown woolen nose, and a vest made from the same wool. Thomas has bright black bead eyes and felt paw pads with embroidered claws. Limited edition of three.
