Effie is a fabulous artist bear designed and made by Heidi Steiner, of Steiner Bears in Wisconsin. She is 18" tall, fully jointed, and made from a blonde curly mohair. She has orange eyes with black pupils, extended shaved muzzle, handstitched nose and mouth, and wool paw pads. She is very firmly stuffed with poly and pellets for weight.

She comes dressed in her original vintage christening gown with embroidered ruffled hem and embroidered accents on the bodice. Around her neck she wears two vintage large embroidered collars and around her waist, a white eyelet apron which ties in the back with in a large handcrocheted bow. An irridescent pink tulle stole is wrapped around her shoulders. A pink vintage beaded necklace and rhinestone pin accents her neckline. A large purple straw hat sits on her head accented with purple feathers, vintage green velvet flowers, and a purple velvet headband.

This is one of her earlier bears and is in mint condition with the original hangtag. She originally retailed at $495.
