Price not listed

These crazy balls of wool have been created for Selfridges Wool week, which was a very special event launched in 2010. The Campaign for Wool is a project backed by the Prince of Wales to promote the British wool industry. These two character were created especially to help promote wool, which is why they have been fashioned to look like balls of wool. Both are made from a plastazote structure which is covered in different coloured fleece and wool. One of the characters has a green base with blue stripes; blue bobbles on his head and wearing an orange top hat with pink band. His shoes are blue

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as COSTUMES WITH CHARACTER LIMITED, number 03798725. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
Not established. Many companies file a statement rather than naming a controlling shareholder.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
