White Cased Glass Polar Bear Figurine = Mantorp??

I can't remember what any of the animals looked like in previous links as they have all dissapeared.

But here's some Mantorp Polar bears.

Thank you, Tony.

The Marcolin bear looks more like mine with regards to the white internal layer but the head and feet don't look as detailed on the Marcolin piece as my  polar bear.

Maybe mine is a cross-bred Mantorp and Marcolin  :lol:

Another possibility could be Ronneby. Still looking.  :lol:

Tony - Are you saying that my polar bear is FM Konstglas, Ronneby, Swden?

I did notice a similarity to the white layer between it and the large cat (?) that someone posted here recently.  I will have to dig up that thread.

No, just trying to find another maker that it could be. I think Ronneby and Marcolin are the same company, hence, my embarassment.  :oops:
