A characterful Japanese wooden bear sculpture, hand-carved from richly stained timber and depicted in mid-stride. The carving has a wonderfully tactile surface and a warm, developed patina that reflects years of handling and appreciation. It is a charming decorative piece — full of warmth, movement, and the distinctive personality of Japanese folk carving. Light age-related marks are consistent with its age and only enhance its authenticity.Originally inspired by Swiss Black Forest carvings, these bears became a celebrated regional craft in Japan, standing today as both cultural artefacts and fine examples of traditional woodcarving.All measurements are done to the widest point .Please feel free to contact me with any enquiry or for more pictures .Delivery :We can arrange to deliver any where in the world just let us know your destination and we will get a quote for you .Here at Sinclair's Antiques and Interiors we do our utmost best to ensure all our items are ...
