About the Item

An impressive pair of early 20th century terracotta brown bear statues, each holding a detachable terracotta bowl which could be used as a planter. An amusing duo, these bear statues are characteristically sculpted in a sitting position and have expressive features with striking glass eyes and bared teeth. Together, they make a handsome feature in interior or garden, looking particularly striking either side of a courtyard archway or as mascot to the entrance a forest restaurant.
