Item was in a box of random teddy bears gifted to me. Sadie is a mohair bear with glass eyes and wool paw pads. She is highly posable. She has an adorable lace shawl with a tiny clasping it together. A bit of lace wraps her head. Someone appears to have written details about her make on one foot pad as I can make out the word 'Donna' on it.
13 1/2" tall
