Black Forest Bear

Black Forest carving of a sitting bear in excellent original condition.  Approximately 12” tall. There is a line in the bear’s left rear foot that is not a break.  Rather, the foot was carved separately and joined to the leg by a peg and the line is very narrow and precise.  Detail, condition and large size make this piece notable.  Swiss, circa 1900.  (CD-38)
