Standing 1.2 meters tall, carved from Linden wood in the Brienz region of Switzerland, a wonderful and rare Black Forest Bear stick / umbrella stand. Well it doesn’t get much better than this…the carving is of the finest quality, having original glass eyes, tin drip pan and the rarely seen model holding a revolving leaf carved plate.
Extremely well executed and of large proportions having a full scale standing bear, usually the bear stands on carved rocks which makes a much shorter bear in size.
