Handmade Toy Velvet Blue Whale

Crafted from dark blue velvet and beautiful printed cottons, this whale is completely handmade in my studio on the Isle of Wight. Although most of us would normally struggle to fit a Blue Whale into our homes, this Blue Whale is the absolute perfect size to sit on a sofa as a cushion, or on a bed as a pillow and is the absolute most perfect size for being hugged and taken on adventures! He might be blue in colour and blue by name, but there’s nothing blue about this whale’s personality, he’s the happiest whale out there.

This whale will make the perfect gift for any cetacean loving child or adult. And because you know exactly where he’s made you can give a gift knowing it’s sustainable and long lasting. We’re talking heirlooms here, not landfill.

Whether you’re looking for a gift for your own child, a grandchild, a nephew or a niece, or you just fancy snuggling up to your own Blue Whale, you can give this one knowing that you’re giving a gift that won’t need to be tidied away at the end of the day. This is a gift that will bring a playfulness and joy to any corner of a home. He’s made to be played with, but he’s also made to look good on that sofa.

My inspiration for all my creatures comes from my own childhood obsessions with nature and birds, The Famous Five and the wild Dungeness coastline. And in recent years by the incredible island I now call home.

I make creatures that will evoke childhood memories for grown up children and create childhood memories for the children of today.
