I have never made a little beret before, so that was a fun challenge. This otter is sporting
a lush blue velvet beret with a little gold leaf. His stick is covered in matching velvet and wrapped in gold metallic thread.
He sports a cream colored ruffled collar and one of golden netting. His jingle collar is made with the same cream material
matched with a light checkered sage. The diamond-shaped panels are edged in an elegant gold trim. Gold bells jingle off the
end of each panel. He is painted with a little gold tint in his eyes and the entire head is covered in a glaze to protect
it. The mono-filament whiskers are trimmed to closely match a wild river otter. I love working with whiskers. They add so
much to each piece. If you look closely, there is a little smile underneath those whiskers! And finally he bears a braided
loop for convenient hanging on the wall.
This was a custom order. Please drop us a message if you are interested
in a jester similar to this one, or if you have something different in mind.
