What kind of bear is best? You may be thinking black bear, but we think bronze bear.
This bear was made around 1600 in Florence as a pair to a dog sculpture—both about a foot tall. Swipe to see these cuties together. They are both about a foot tall, and were made as framing elements, maybe placed on either side of a fireplace.
