Thank you for viewing! ⭐️ Bids are accepted until December 15th. This will be the final listing for this item. The bear figurine symbolizes "growing up big" and "becoming a great person," and larger ones are preferred. In addition, it is also considered a good luck charm for "overcoming trials" and "passing exams," as well as having meanings of "warding off evil" and "preventing misfortune." In Europe, it is also a motif for "attracting wealth" and "bringing happiness." 【Facing Left】: When left and right-facing bears are displayed together, one bear is sometimes displayed to "ward off evil" and the other to "invite good fortune." 【Facing Right】: Generally, right-facing bears are often displayed as a set with left-facing bears, and right-facing bears are considered to have a stronger effect of warding off evil and preventing misfortune compared to left-facing bears. ◉ Among the many figurines, it is said that there are few bear figurines facing this direction. This is a powerful wooden bear carving from Hokkaido, featuring a design of a bear holding a fish. It has a glossy black and dark gray finish, giving it an indescribable presence. It has been stored at home for a long time. There are some scratches on the base, but they can be hidden under the bear's feet, so it should be fine. Please refer to the photos for the size.
