The looks02

01 Look

Front

A short forest-green technical jacket with a large terracotta yoke, wide cropped graphite trousers and suede hiking boots. No hat. One paw holds a closed matt tea flask against the side, while the other adjusts the large flap of its attached case; a slight forward lean.

02 Look

Front

A broad plum-lilac sweater with a contrasting cream neckline, soft ochre trousers and one-piece house slippers. Both paws support one small pale brewing teapot low down, its lid closed; the gaze turns aside, with no pouring stream or steam.

00 / Original form

Character starts with form.

One solid asymmetric arch curves above the forehead of a broad green ceramic head. A cream face, compact springy body and one-corner smile create a confident little silhouette.
