Sri Lanka, the Belly Dancing Bear from Scratching at the Window, soft sculpture creations by Karen Waschinski

Sri Lanka, a Belly Dancing Bear

Shaking and shimming her way across the stage, Sri Lanka has just a touch of the exotic with her rich brown fur and curly, black hair and lashes. She knows all the moves!

Sri Lanka stands about 14 inches tall and is fully wired and jointed with a Flexlimb spine, even her feet are flexible so that she can balance well, no matter what the pose. Her fur is European mohair, with matching brown ultrasuede paw pads, a dark chocolate and black embroidery floss nose, blue glass eyes, embroidery floss mouth and fingers, topped with a long curly black wig and eyelashes. She's stuffed with polyester fiberfill and glass beads. Of course she has a bellybutton piercing, wearing a gold loop with a black bead.

Like Lola, Sri Lanka chose an outfit that's all glitz! Her black ultrasuede brassiere with black and gold beads has an overlay made up of many small golden links that jingle and sway magically when she dances. Her embroidery waist-banded skirt with its beads and ankle bangles with real little bells that jingle exotically to get you into the Middle Eastern mood. Golden earrings, golden arm bands and the lovely black and golden bead circlet with a heart on her forehead finish the ensemble with class! A small butterfly hairclip tames her beautiful mass of long hair.
