This is one of my earlier makes of a pony. Needle felted out of high quality wool over a wire armature, making it posable. Stands 8" tall, 11" deep, 3" wide. Needle Felted Sculptures are not intended as toys but are a work of art for displaying or collecting. Needle Felting is a fairly new art form and is generally made from 100% wool with other objects such as wire armatures and glass or plastic eyes. And possible polymer clay noses. Caring for your new art form, as far as handling the more you handle the more your body oils will be absorbed into and change your piece of art. If your art form becomes dusty, blowing on it or using canned air gently will take care of the dust issue. Regarding the wire armature. Wire armature generally makes your art form able to pose but posing over and over time you risk breaking the wire armature. So be gentle and take care and enjoy!
