The 129 year old company Steiff is famous for creating creatures of unparalleled quality, and this first edition Forever Steiff Friend from Luxury Kitten is no exception. Lovely and handmade, elegantly attired in a beautiful, elaborately detailed outfit, this classic Steiff 'Pilla' mouse comes with an updated twist and an appearance so vivid as to seem a storybook character come to life. And indeed, Madeline is a Habersham Forest creature sprung from the very pages of the wondrous book Sassafrass Jones and the Search for a Forever Home (see review in Books & Magazines section of our website). Each little detail - the flush in her cheeks, the soft, bushy fur atop her head, those intelligent eyes, and the tail peeking from beneath the bell of her dress - is so carefully realized as to create the impression that what we're seeing is a living, breathing character, one whose story we will want to know. Forever Steiff Friend comes beautifully packaged in a bow-tied hat box (Madeline is, after all, a milliner). Pure magic.
