Apple Whimsey - Chey Lapin, Lop-Earred Rabbit Chef

Chey Lapin by Apple Whimsey.   This Rabbit Chef wears a white apron and a chef's hat.  He carries a rolling pin and holds a book and various fruit in his hands.  He also has a variety of cooking tools in his arms (wooden spoon, whisk, sifter, etc).   He also has glasses on his nose.  His cute little tail peeks out in back from his apron.   He wears a green bandana scarf and tennis shoes.   This is a special 1 of 1 edition.   His tag gives his name "Chey Lapin" and is signed by the artist, Lita Gates.  It is dated 12/6/2002 so this is one of the last Apple Whimseys made.     

The lop-earred rabbit is in excellent condition.  The only thing I noticed is that his glasses are not fixed to his face but rest in the proper place.  There are a few small spots on his apron but not sure he didn't come that way.
