Cloud Touch™ Bear — 12" White
Alpaca Fur Teddy Bear
Ethically and sustainable sourced
This 12-inch handmade alpaca teddy bear combines genuine baby alpaca fur, a natural undyed white coat, and artisan craftsmanship. Handmade in Peru by indigenous Andean artisan families, this bear is one of our most recognizable alpaca stuffed animal designs, finished with the Cloud Touch™ softness that defines our bear collection.
The Feel of Cloud Touch™
White is not a color we added. It's the fiber's own natural pigment — genuine baby Huacaya alpaca fur exactly as it comes from the animal, with nothing added and nothing taken away.
Cloud Touch™ describes a dense, springy loft that yields softly under your hand and naturally recovers its volume. This distinctive feel comes from the natural crimp structure of genuine Huacaya alpaca fur, which creates exceptional loft and volume across the entire fur surface. The result is a sensation that feels noticeably different from most synthetic plush materials — airy, responsive, richly dimensional, and carefully shaped by hand into this heirloom companion.
This bear is made from genuine baby Huacaya alpaca fur — natural, undyed white, the alpaca's own unaltered coat color, and naturally lanolin-free.
Each bear is hand-stitched entirely by a single artisan from one of our 35+ indigenous Andean artisan family cooperatives. No two pieces are exactly alike. Every bear ships with a Certificate of Authenticity signed by the artisan who made it.
Available in three sizes: 12" Classic (this page), our most popular gift size; 16" Jumbo, a larger, heirloom-scale statement piece ideal for display or a milestone gift; and 6" Mini, a collector-sized companion perfect as a desk companion or stocking stuffer. All three share the same genuine Huacaya alpaca fur and individual Certificate of Authenticity — only the scale changes.
