At around 9 inches, this plush ant is many times magnified, but that allows you to see just how pretty she is. Made from a velvety smooth plush fabric, the Handcrafted Lifelike Ant Stuffed Animal by Hansa has been constructed using lots of different pieces, which have all been sewn inside out – by hand – to remove visible seams and keep her soft and strokable. Filled with a soft fiber which is hand-sculpted to create a true-to-life form, this stuffed ant’s astonishing realism is in the airbrushed details which really bring her to life. From the delicate brown shading on her orange body to the subtle markings on her face, the Handcrafted Lifelike Ant Stuffed Animal by Hansa is a beautiful way to get to know this much-maligned insect, and she even comes with an internal support so she can keep her stance perfectly while you study her at close quarters.
