Jellycat Amuseable Poinsettia

There is a stillness to Jellycat Amuseables Poinsettia, a red amuseable of 30 cm that asks to be picked up.

The piece itself

The Amuseables idea is simple and it works. An ordinary thing is given a face, two small feet and enough personality to earn a place on a shelf. Amuseables Poinsettia reads as red and green, and the stitching around the features is neat enough to look deliberate rather than merely cute.

Measurements and fit

The measurement is 30 cm. Worth knowing to the centimetre rather than roughly, because our outfits are listed by the height they are cut for and a few centimetres is the difference between a dress that closes and one that does not. Measure base to head, and the size guide will tell you the rest.

Where it sits in the Jellycat range

Amuseables Poinsettia sits within the Amuseables range. We keep a range together on the shelf and on the site, because the pieces were designed to be seen that way, and because the sizes within a range often overlap enough that a single outfit fits more than one of them. The size guide sets out the centimetre bands, and every garment we make is listed against one of them.

Materials and care

Polyester fabric with polyester filling. Hand wash only. Do not tumble dry. Reshape it while it is damp and it dries the way it was made. That takes a minute and it is the only part of the process that really matters.

Suitability

Filed under home and nursery decor, and chosen here for Christmas and a new home more than anything else. It reads as considered rather than expensive, which is usually the harder thing to get right in a gift.

About A Flying Wish

Two things happen in this shop. We make outfits for plush companions, and we stock the companions themselves, Amuseables Poinsettia included. Keeping both under one roof is the only way to be certain that what we sell to dress a plush actually fits the plush we sold.
