This family is deceptively fuzzy. I thought their whole bodies were fluffy when I purchased them, however it turns out it's just their faces. And they're actually quite bristley instead of soft. Either way, I don't think there any other Sylvanians that look so. . . Tumble-dryed.
In 2010 International Playthings confirmed that the US Calico Critters range were going to release this family and the standing baby as a limited edition set. They are identical to the UK versions.

Persis Biographies
Septimus Persis is a master craftsman, making the most beautiful, colourful rugs that Sylvania has ever seen! Sitting at his loom, surrounded by wonderful, complicated designs, Septimus creates his masterpieces in delicate coloured silks and cottons on sturdy jute strands. "Why have the floor covered in a single coloured carpet. when I can give you the moon and stars in a rug?" he asks his customers.
Salome Persis is an artist and draws her inspirations from nature, she creates a lot of the intricate designs that her husband Septimus uses in his rugs. Sitting at her easel in the woods drawing and painting for hours, Salome feels at peace with the natural world that is all around her.
Nolly Persis' idea of the 'purrfect' day is to play in the garden, only returning to the house at mealtimes. His favourite pastime is to climb up all the different trees but predictably, he always seems to get stuck up the biggest tree! As soon as his father, Septimus, hears his son's cries for help, he mutters: "Not again!" as he heads out into the garden. Nolly just shrugs his shoulders and smiles each time.
Sadie Persis likes nothing better than to curl up with a good book in the sunniest part of the house. She can spend hours reading romantic novels in the sun's warm rays, oblivious to the world around her.
Roma and Rona are a bit destructive in the nursery. It's not that they are really naughty, just that they don't know any better! Between them, they've managed to pick holes in the wallpaper and scratched the paintwork on their cot and nursery door.
Marcus Persis can always be found fast asleep on his sister's lap while she reads her books. He likes his sister because she always managed to find the sunniest spots to sit.
