Charming (and Heavy!) Handmade Clay Bear Sculpture antique carved wood doll A pretty pair of vintageI think this bear is a charmer, with a great, bold presence and also, with these elegantly pointing legs, ears and nose, a lot of grace. He's solid clay, with a warm, shiny brown glaze on his belly and great reactive black glaze on his back, which gives him a sort of Brutalist feel, too. Signed (incised) on the bottom of his feet John M. Turner. I might guess 1970s or so but am really not certain. Standing dimensions: 7 3 4" tall x 4 1 2" w x 4 5 8"
