The Parlour Sheep is the answer to the question, “Must I keep hurling my stuffed toy into the nearest cupboard when anyone comes to call?” Now you don’t have to- the parlour sheep is not just an excellent lap companion, but a sculpture, an art-cushion, and a conversation piece. Lovingly designed, sewn and stuffed in Brooklyn, NY by Francine founder Sofie Birkin, she is constructed with the kind of attention usually reserved for much more serious endeavors.
The Parlour Sheep is handmade from top-shelf velvet, ultra soft faux fur and hypoallergenic stuffing. She will arrive in a satin dust bag with her portrait and personal information on a ribbon around her neck. Each sheep has her own unique name and backstory— you will have to wait and see which member of the flock you end up with. The Parlour Sheep is the perfect piece for collectors, nostalgists, and anyone whose inner child is more Anne Shirley than Pippi Longstocking.
Size: Approximately 14 x 14 x 8”
Materials: Velvet, faux fur, hypoallergenic plush filling.
Care: Spot clean carefully according to product directions. In theory, this should hold up to a cold, gentle cycle in a washing machine, but we haven’t tried it and would avoid it if possible. Do not tumble dry. These are art objects and we cannot guarantee they are suitable for young children or pets. We suspect pets would be just as happy with something that doesn’t cost $450, anyway.
