A Serge Mansau Vintage Glass Teddy Bear

About the Item

This whimsical glass sculpture of a teddy bear was made by Serge Mansau. Serge Mansau was a renowned French designer and sculptor. He is best known for his imaginative and artistic perfume bottle designs. Later, his work extended beyond perfume into glass sculpture and toy-inspired forms, reflecting his playful yet elevated aesthetic. Is a Mansau better than a Koons? We'll leave that up to the collector.

Rare 18th C Wooden Statue of St. John the Baptist
Located in Chicago, IL
This exceptionally life-like antique sculpture is carved from linden wood and once decorated a French church or cathedral.
