Handcrafted 16 Inch Lifelike Ringtail Stuffed Animal by Hansa

This adorable little creature might look a little like a cat and even have several feline nicknames such as civet-cat and miner’s cat, but the Handcrafted 16 Inch Lifelike Ringtail Stuffed Animal by Hansa actually belongs to the raccoon family. At around 16 inches, this plush ringtail will melt the hearts of everyone who sees her. With the sweetest face and large, almond eyes, the Handcrafted 16 Inch Lifelike Ringtail Stuffed Animal by Hansa has been brought to life thanks to the skill and dedication of the artisans who created her in their environmentally responsible studios. Made using dozens of individual pieces, this stuffed ringtail has been hand sewn inside out to minimize seams and then stuffed and sculpted to ensure the correct musculature and form. In a playful bowing-down position, the Handcrafted 16 Inch Lifelike Ringtail Stuffed Animal by Hansa’s beautiful striped tail – which gives this species its name – is super long and super fluffy, and bears rings that alternate between dark and light for wonderful contrast. Anatomically scaled for the most realistic build, this ringtail stuffed animal has been crafted using portraits taken in nature, and finished with the most beautiful, airbrushed details to really give her an ultra-realistic look.

Hansa stuffed animals are as lifelike as stuffed animals can be because each animal is carefully designed using significant research and actual portraits of the animal in its natural habitat. Hansa’s goal in being so exact in the creation of their stuffed animals is to educate children and adults about the animals’ lives and to help increase the understanding and appreciation of these amazing creatures and of our co-existence with them. Each stuffed animal is hand sewn using an old world ‘inside-out’ method to minimize the visibility of the seams. Each stuffed animal’s face is hand-finished and airbrushed to give it a truly unique appearance and the body is also carefully sculpted to create realistic features. These true-to-life stuffed animals look great in dens, offices, and display cases and also make excellent playmates. Every piece comes with an educational tag describing, in detail, the animal’s habitat, lifestyle, gestation period, care of young and eating habits. All Hansa stuffed animals meet or exceed all U.S. and European safety standards and are recommended for ages three and up. We suggest gentle surface washing for Hansa stuffed animals.
