Impressive, naturalistic and lifelike porcelain figure from the world-famous Rosenthal porcelain manufactory in Selb/Bavaria, Germany

Standing or walking, looking slightly backward to the side, young brown bear

Design from 1936 by Gustav Oppel
Monogrammed with GO on the underside of two paws
On another paw the green hallmark, as it was used between 1934-1956
On the fourth paw the model number 1594

1. Choice
Very good condition without chips, cracks or repairs
One toe of the front left paw is slightly shorter
This, however, seems to be production-related, as it is glazed over
