    Hi there,I'm Jess living in South Wales UK. I recently rescued these 2 brothers from ebay. I didn't pay a lot for them but I'd love to know a little about them. They're jointed at the arms and legs but their heads are fixed. They have glass eyes,mohair golden fur and seem to be filled with something quite solid as both bears are really firm. Their arms and legs are pinned with plastic pins. One bear stands at 6 inches tall and the other one Stands at 4 Inches. The lady I bought them from thinks they're both from Germany. I'd love to know how old they are and who might have made them.

      Hi Jess. They're adorable. It's curious that those cotter pins are on the outside. Walter and Arthur look so well made, and it's a puzzle to find them like that. Is that a Tibetan thangka in the background?

      Thank you. Yes it is a Tibetan Thanks in the back ground.
      I've been studying and practicing Tibetan Buddhism since 2000. ?
