Cozy Curl Pangolin Felti

Scales of wonder, hearts of hope. Curled up and ready for the tree.

The Cozy Curl Pangolin Felti is a handmade needle-felted pangolin Christmas ornament, sculpted from 100% wool by artisans in Peru. Hang it on the tree, tie it to a gift, or keep it out all year. Every purchase supports women-led livelihoods in spectacled bear habitat and SOSA's wildlife conservation work.

Why the pangolin?

Pangolins are among the most trafficked mammals in the world. All eight species are threatened with extinction, and three are Critically Endangered.

Handmade by the women of SBC

Each Felti is made using dry needle felting, a technique that turns unspun wool into a sculpted animal one jab of the needle at a time, so no two are exactly alike. These felted ornaments are handcrafted by Indigenous women in the Spectacled Bear Conservation Society's (SBC) alternative livelihood program in northwestern Peru. The program creates steady, sustainable income for women living in critical spectacled bear habitat, so families and bears can both thrive.

Good to know

Is it a toy? Feltis are decorative ornaments and keepsakes, not toys, and are not suitable for young children.
Does each one look the same? Every Felti is handmade, so expect small, charming differences in shape and colour.
Where does the money go? Your purchase pays the artisans through SBC's livelihood program and funds SOSA's conservation partnerships.
