Workshop - Henry
Henry is made from mohair/viscose with glass eyes. He is fully jointed and filled with glass beads and wool.

Henry has some double jointing on the legs/paws as well as padding and glass claws. The eyelids are made from ultra suede. This design is very versatile as it can be painted to every students liking.
