CHARLIE BEARS 'Dempsey' SJ5579 from the Isabelle Collection – Limited Edition 285/350

Dempsey is a striking and characterful bear from the highly sought-after Isabelle Collection, beautifully designed by Isabelle Lee as a tribute to the 1980s TV Detective, James Dempsey of Dempsey and Makepeace, this charming bear captures a sense of nostalgia alongside exceptional craftsmanship.

Dempsey is loosely fully jointed and has a satisfyingly weighty feel. He is crafted from luxuriously fluffy, long-pile mohair in muted pale olive tones, giving him a soft yet distinguished appearance. His elongated paws and carefully sculpted features add to his unique character, while delicate airbrushing, scissor sculpting, and shaving bring depth and definition to his expressive face and paws.

Dempsey’s soulful, glossy glass eyes are beautifully complemented by his hand-stitched mouth and distinctive two-tone nose, creating a warm and engaging expression.  He wears a detailed arrangement featuring a leather bow, a jingle bell and church bell, along with an ornate metal leaf, all secured to his chest with a large button for a truly distinctive finish.

Height: 19" / 49 cm

This bear is a worldwide limited edition of just 350 pieces, with this example being number 285. He comes complete with his original swing tag of authenticity and limited edition certificate attached, and is in good to excellent condition.

A wonderfully detailed and nostalgic piece, Dempsey is a standout addition to any serious Charlie Bears collection and, due to his collectible nature, is not suitable for children under 14 years of age.
