Amber coloured Bear on rocks or ice centrepiece, unknown maker ?.

I see Sue of Black Poppy has the same Bear complete in green with bowl as unknown, this one is missing flower frog holder, I think its not a very common Bear

Hi Roy
I used to have the green bear just like this and it was moulded to a chrome lamp base,I wondered if that was what it was meant for?

That would make sense, it did look like it had been fitted into something, I knew it was thye same bear that fitted into the bowl .

The bear that fits in the bowl which I believe you were looking for a green one is it all one piece or is it flower frog and bear 2 pieces

Hi Roy
I was originally looking for a one piece bear with intergrated frog like black poppys page,as I had the original bowl.I have since sold the bowl as I gave up looking for it!
Your amber one is lovely! I used to think that it could have been made by Reich? The green one I had was very  thick and vibrant and reminded me of the Reich elves green bowl I used to have.

Thanks Nige

Looking at Black Poppy's green bear I could not tell if it was one piece or 2 so at least I know it was one piece

Thanks again Roy
