"Brown Bear" is the sixth and final Annual Figurine from Bing & Grøndahl in this series depicting young animals from the wilds of nature.
The brown bear is Europe's largest bear and can grow to over 7.5 ft. tall and weigh over 750 pounds. It lives in the forested areas of the mountains in Norway, Sweden, the Psyrenees and Greece.
Just like the other Annual Figurines in the series, "Brown Bear" was created by artist Allan Therkelsen. It is hand-painted underneath the glaze and the world-wide edition is limited to 5,000 individually numbered pieces. Each figurine is packaged in an exquisite gift box with a certificate of authenticity.
