Sweet Old Green Painted Mother Bear with Moving Arms boston ceramics and some spotting just on

and some spotting just on the back

which show some darkening to their surfaces

with light wear and a bit of rusting to the brass

I think they're just great looking

There is one area of wood along the edge on the mirror side that shows cracking--not especially noticeable unless you are looking for it

Sweet Old Green Painted Mother Bear with Moving Arms boston ceramics and some spotting just onI couldn't resist this mother bear, looking so kind and proud in her forest green paint, which didn't quite make its way up to covering her head, which has the effect of making her seem to stand even taller. Her arms are attached by heavy looped wire, allowing them to move to and fro when raised above her head, they cover he (would be) eyes, as if she were expressing woe at a wayward cub or two! She's got a sweet little wire tail too. 6 3 4 t x 3 5 16
