Gorgeous toning of the bear gives reality a push here, what a find !~
I love her- her head is almost see through looking which reminds me of a polar bear actually? You often see bears in clear glass but this is a lovely light coloured brown AND she's got neck ruffles! Ver protective over her little ones I think :P
Many thanks to all for the beary kind love

Phil thank you so much for the wonderful praise, yes the pale to darker brown tones of this bear piece are really cool and I think an enhancement, I'm glad the baby bears' colors are more intense so you can make out their cute faces. This line of WWF glass animals for Kosta Boda had only a handful of mamas with their offspring, they are hard to find so I was excited to get this piece which was sent from Sweden
Thank you Jerryboy for your really nice comment I am so glad you enjoyed this, yes I have to say this was a lucky & unexpected find for me as it's hardly ever available
Thanks Lauren for your super compliments & observ about the polar bear similarity, I truly thought so too especially with its latin name ursus arctos (arctic for polar, makes sense right) but going to wiki that is the name for brown bears including the grizzly variety, and being brown colored it's nice they kept it natural. The neck ruffling is very realistic too, & love those babies' heads poking out :)) Kosta Boda also made a WWF glass polar bear which is huge & has an opalescent white-blue color, I've only ever seen images of it online but would love to find that one someday
Really appreciate the kind love iggy, many thanks for enjoying these glass bears
