About the Item
American Mohair & Straw Jointed Cone Nose Teddy Bear, 'Franklin'
USA, Circa 1900s
Meet "Franklin," an expressive and well-loved example of an uncommon American cone-nose teddy bear from the early 1900s. Standing an impressive 25 inches high, 11 inches wide, and 7 inches deep, Franklin's elongated features, including his arms and legs, give him a distinctive charm that sets him apart from typical teddy bears of his era.
Crafted from mohair with a straw-stuffed body, Franklin embodies the craftsmanship and nostalgia of early 20th-century American toy making. Though unmarked, his construction and form highlight the era's attention to detail and enduring quality. His cone-shaped nose and timeless appeal make him a delightful and rare find for collectors and teddy bear enthusiasts.
Franklin's well-loved condition only adds to his character, showcasing a lifetime of cherished memories and companionship. Despite his age, he remains structurally sound and ready to become part of a new story.
Perfect for display in a collection, as a whimsical decorative piece, or simply as a nostalgic reminder of childhood, Franklin is ready for immediate "adoption." This endearing bear promises to bring warmth, charm, and a touch of history to any home or interior.
