Rainbow Boa Snake Soft Toy

If there’s one thing this boa is good at, it’s hugging. All 150 centimetres of its soft snake ’skin’ and squidgy stuffing is made from recycled plastic (polyethylene terephthalate), known as RPET.

In the wild, the skin’s scales are iridescent. Their tiny ridges act like a prism, so when the light catches them, it splits into its separate colours, creating a rainbow effect. The skin colour, pattern and markings also differ between species, making each rainbow boa unique. Just like this one.
