This is a 3.5-inch 1 of 5 gold and black long mohair  (9mm black and gold genuine German mohair) Panda Bear JO JO from Bromley's Teddy Bears of distinction in the UK. This little bear has black glass eyes, embroidered nose and mouth; 5-way jointed and ultrasuede paw pads. JO JO was created by Annette Freeth for Bromley's.  Her label is marked "1 of 5."

Bromley's is set in the 16th century village of Abbots Bromley in Staffordshire.

JO JO is filled with Polyester and steel shot. Jointed with cotter pins. 4mm black glass eyes. Created on January 7, 2001.

I bought this bear when I went to the UK in 2001. 911 happened while we were there. I owned a teddy bear shop for 23 years so going to the UK, Scotland and Wales was a great way for me to feed my artist bear addiction. I bought JO JO for my collection not for the shop. She has been in a glass display case for over 20 years and never exposed to smoke, perfume, or scent of any kind. As an asthmatic everything in my life is scent free. Also from child-free home (no cats either). 

I really love this bear but as I get older and have no one to leave bears to who would appreciate them, I want them to find homes where they will be loved.
