PAAAAWS PROCESS · STEP BY STEP

The Paaaaws process: from the gaze in a photograph to the sculpture in wool.

Choose your companion’s scale

Three measured interpretations, adapted to the presence and solemnity you want in your special corner.

Anatomical measurement from head to base
Wool figure of an apricot poodle sitting on a pale wooden shelf. 13 cm tall
Desk and shelf

PAAAAWS Sitting 13

The desk format. It fits in one hand and on a shelf, and still holds the curve of the back and the orientation of the gaze.

ENTRADA 125 €
Wool figure of a golden retriever sitting inside its presentation box, with a carpenter’s rule on the edge of the table. 15 cm tall
Desk and bedside table

PAAAAWS Sitting 15

One step more of body while remaining a desk figure. The sitting posture gains detail in the chest, neck and paws.

SOBREMESA 140 €
MOST CHOSEN
The artisan working needle-felted wool on the muzzle of a sitting dog figure, with fibres and felting tools around. 20 cm tall
Sitting at true scale

PAAAAWS Sitting 20

The sitting figure at true scale, and the most chosen: it reproduces the back, the muzzle and the coat texture without taking over the living room.

MOST CHOSEN 285 €
Wool figure of a golden retriever standing beside a metal rule graduated in centimetres. 20 cm tall
Standing posture

PAAAAWS Standing 20

The same height with a different reading: standing gains the line of the legs, the chest and a sustained forward gaze.

STANDING 325 €
Wool figure of a golden retriever standing beside a graduated rule, with the reference photograph alongside on a phone screen. 23 cm tall
Large format

PAAAAWS Standing 23

The largest format in the catalogue. Standing at 23 cm, it is the piece you notice from the other side of the room.

LARGEST SIZE 410 €
Commitment to pure materiality

Every figure is sculpted in 100% hand-spun merino fleece over a flexible galvanised wire articulation core.

Preliminary Phase

Choosing the Piece and Booking

We define the format, sitting at 13, 15 or 20 cm, or standing at 20 or 23 cm, and review the breed and coat type. We confirm availability and the necessary details before starting your bespoke figure.

Sending Photos and Key Features

You upload front, side and the details only you know to your private file: the grizzled eyebrow, that irregular mark on the back, or the tender posture while resting. The better we know their gaze, the more alive the sculpture will be.

The creation process

Hand Carded and Felted

Merino wool is worked needle by needle to build the anatomy layer by layer. Fibre tones are blended by hand to match their coat, from the shadows of the muzzle to the texture of their ears.

Scale and Proportion Measurement

Millimetre check of anatomical proportions before the final fixing. We verify the dorsal curve, the angle of leg attachment and the symmetry of the gaze against your photographs directly.

Operational FAQs

Total clarity before you take the first step. Your peace of mind matters to us as much as the fidelity of the sculpture.

What formats and prices are there?

We have five formats. Sitting: 13 cm (€125), 15 cm (€140) and 20 cm (€285). Standing: 20 cm (€325) and 23 cm (€410). Height and posture set the price because a sitting figure and a standing one are not built the same way. Any other size or a piece with a pedestal is quoted separately: send us the photograph and we will price it.

Is shipping included or charged separately?

It is included in the price you see, which is why we do not add it as a separate line nor advertise it as free: it is already paid. It travels by DDP air to the European Union with insurance and a tracking number, so you will not pay taxes or duties on arrival. The 13 and 15 cm formats ship in the 1 kg band; from 20 cm, in the 2 kg band. If you want photographs of the finished piece in 3-4 days instead of the standard lead time, there is express delivery for €20.

What if I do not approve the photo preview?

If you feel a feature does not fully capture the essence of your companion, we arrange the necessary touch-ups at no extra cost. The commission is not dispatched until we have your explicit confirmation.

How long does the whole process take?

Making the figure takes 7 working days, depending on availability and the complexity of the coat. On top of that there is about 15 days in transit to the European Union or the United States, and 15 to 20 days to the rest of the world. In other words, around three weeks from sending your photos to having it in your hands. We confirm the estimated date in writing before accepting any booking payment.

What kind of photos do I need to send?

We recommend 4 to 6 photographs taken at the height of their eyes with natural light, without strong filters or hard shadows. If your companion has passed and you only have old, printed or blurred photographs, our team examines them with care before formalising, to certify the viability of the recreation.

Is real hair included in the replica?

Our sculptures are made exclusively in 100% hand-spun merino fleece of high ethical purity, mineral-dyed for maximum durability. If you wish to keep biological hair from your pet, we offer our complementary Reliquaries & Keepsakes collection with a protected inner capsule.

Do you have a particular case or complex photos?

We review your material by WhatsApp or email with no obligation.
