Edward Tulane
This bunny was originally designed as a special order for a
granddaughter who read and loved the book "The Miraculous
Journey of Edward Tulane" shown beside Edward in the picture.
Trying to stay true to the description
in the book, Edward measures almost 36" from feet to top of ears.
In the book Edward was porcelain with fur ears and
tail. My version of Edward was made with a cloth face and limbs but
coated with an artists mixture, painted then sealed with a gloss
fixative to resemble porcelain. His clothes are removable and his fur
tail sticks out beyond the opening in the back of his pants.
True to the book, Edward does have a
pocket in the front of his pants for you to tuck a pocket watch if
you so choose. I also stitched a red heart pocket on his chest
for a special message for the child. Edward has dots to represent
whiskers and has painted rosy cheeks.
If you would like to have an Edward
Tulane of your own, please
contact me to place an order. I may or may not have one in
stock. In the event there is not one in stock, please allow up
to 4 weeks for
delivery. All inquiries are welcome since shows and workload
vary.
Edward is $145 plus shipping;
shipping of the other rabbits were around $16.
Book not included.
