A Set of Glazed Ceramic Teddy Bear Figurines

A set of glazed ceramic figurines depicting anthropomorphic teddy bears. The collection includes a bear wearing blue dungarees with its right paw raised in a waving gesture, bears wearing blue sweaters holding white rectangular objects resembling books or plaques, and a smaller bear in a blue sweater holding an integral bowl. The figurines feature a white ground glaze with the clothing painted in blue and facial details picked out in black and brown. There are no visible maker’s marks, decorator marks, or model numbers present. The style and form are consistent with novelty ceramics and bookends produced in the late 20th century.
