Balsam Yule

By Emma and Mark Nicholson

15" (38cm) 

~ This sweet boy is part of our 2025 Christmas Collection! ~

Every year we produce a unique batch of Christmas themed baby/toddler bears, some dressed in adorable Christmas outfits, with Christmas accessories and this particular boy will also come with his own coordinated comforter toy, gift wrapped and ready for him to open on Christmas Day! (Our 'baby and toddler bears' are a design range that can be dressed in standard human baby clothing, so you can shop for their outfits yourself, and change them into non-holiday themed aesthetics for the rest of the year). 

Balsam is made in a gorgeous mix of mohair fabrics, paired with long pile ivory alpaca for his chubby cheeks. His head an body are made from a long, swirled earthy grey mohair with a hint of sage green on the backing, his limbs are made in a tipped silky curly kid mohair and his ears, hands and feet are made in a short darkest chocolate mohair.  

Balsam's nose is hand embroidered in a matching sage DMC perle cotton and he looks out through classic black glass eyes with faux suede whites and hand-sculpted eyelids. He is fully T-pin jointed and stuffed rather well with polyfill and steel shot weighting, which has been distributed all throughout his body and limbs for a lovely weight to his hug. His hand and foot pads have been made in a soft faux suede, and feature our 3D pad detailing with inktense shading.

Balsam looks absolutely perfect displayed just with his stunning mohair on show, but he also comes with some special accessories to give him that adorable baby-bear appeal. He wears the cutest little pale green sweater (fully removable), with an oversized silver jingle bell pendant. And he also comes with a comforter toy all wrapped up for Christmas - so you both get a surprise!  

Balsam Yule is a very detailed and cuddly one of a kind artist bear. His friends can be found in their own listings. We can't 100% guarantee that he'll make it to his new home in time for Christmas, but we will ship him as quickly as possible to give him the best chance :)
