Kooky Japanese Plushies

The Atomic Yeti and Friends by Monsterosity

Monsterosity is the home of the Atomic Yeti, Jib and the Pink Razor Back Piranha. They are a collection of fun stuffed critters handmade with vintage Japanese silk fabric and other fine materials--including fun fur, obviously. Some are covered with plastic to give an extra shiny and durable finish.

They also make really cool pillows like the orange one here, called Rising Sun made from a vintage Japanese Obi.

The monsters and cushions are made in Japan, one-of-a-kind and available on the Monsterosity Etsy shop.
