24" Victorian Bear Collectible with Clothing and Hat

Here is an awesome cloth and plush stuffed bear for collectors. Exceptionally well-constructed. The body and legs are made of a decorative cloth floral pattern. The face, arms, and feet are plush. The bear's large round eyes are adorned with long eyelashes. She is wearing a beautiful dress with a hoop skirt. There is a matching straw hat with a scalloped embroidered eyelet fabric, which is also at the neckline and hem. There is a green ribbon bow on the bodice and ribbon trim near the hem. It appears that there may have been a tiny decorative accent attached to the bow, but it is missing and can be easily replaced if desired. The bear also is wearing white bloomers and carrying a handful of flowers. The label states this is not a toy, but also mentions it is not suitable for ages under 3. We have searched and searched but have not found anything that resembles this rare find. Please note, the stand is not included.

Condition: Very good vintage condition! There are a few loose threads on the straw hat and several eyelashes have fallen out. Both are shown in the photos. The fabric around the bloomer's elastic is a little loose. It appears that there may have been a tiny decorative accent attached to the bow, but it is missing and can be easily replaced if desired. There are no other visible imperfections. She is beautiful!

This lovely bear is one you'll treasure owning and having on display for many years to come!

Buy it for yourself or a collector you love!
