Glass Eyes for Teddy Bears – Dark Smoked Topaz

A pair of traditional glass eyes for teddy bears that have been handmade to a high quality in England with stainless steel hoops for inserting.   The eyes are intended to be used in collectable teddy bears, vintage bears, needle felting and art dolls.

The hoops on the back of the eyes have been flattened to enable the clip to be squeezed together after the securing thread has been attached.  This makes as small as possible profile to the clip creating no damage to the weave when the eye is fitted to the bear head.

The eyes are made by hand and, because of this, there can be a variation in size.  We always aim to send a pack of 5 pairs that have been matched in size but the size can vary slightly from pack to pack (eg a 6mm pack could contain 5 pairs of 6.3mm eyes or 5 pairs of 5.8mm eyes etc).

You can buy single pairs of eyes or, to save a little money, packs of 5 pairs or packs of 10 pairs of eyes.

These eyes also work well in Fimo creations and, because they are made from glass, withstand the heat of an oven

The eyes come in a variety of sizes and colours and give a wonderful finish to many crafts, not just bear making.  If you are unsure how to insert glass eyes, look at our  How to do it…. page

NB  Glass eyes are not ‘safety eyes’ and are not intended for use in toys for children.
