Wilbur Chuckleton stands 10.5 inches/26 cm tall and is 8 inches (20 cm) sitting, this doesn't include his plumes of hair which add another 3 inches/ 7.5cm.
Wilbur Chuckleton is a sweet and colourful chap, as you can see he's not very serious or sensible, he was designed to put a smile on your face or even make you laugh. There are days when you need an innocent happy face, someone who doesn't comment, or judge, someone who will sit quietly and listen and put things in perspective.
Wilbur Chuckleton is made from several different pieces of fabric, he's mostly made from a fairly short, quite dense, straight pile mohair that Barbara has dyed in a subtle blend of lime, pale yellow, and orange. His face is a longer mohair gently dyed with pale yellow and orange, the top of his head is a dense gold faux fur from which sprouts plumes of long sky blue and red faux fur and the fronts of his ears are a long, straggly mohair dyed blue. His tummy the underside of his tail are a very dense and soft, pink animal print, we call it the 'pink panther fabric', it's so soft that you might find yourself absent-mindedly stroking it for hours.
Wilbur Chuckleton has hand dyed velvet paw pads which compliment his colouring perfectly. He has big, beautiful, sparkling, hand painted glass eyes with eyelids, a wonderful nose embroidered from individual threads to match his colouring and a charming smile, he is stuffed with plastic pellets and polyester stuffing to make him a little heavier and more cuddly.
Wilbur Chuckleton is a charming bear, a happy chap who just wants to bring a smile to your face and hopes just to receive an occasional hug in return, you hope you love him.
As with all our bears Wilbur Chuckleton is not a toy, he is an adult collectable and unsuitable for children under 14.
