      He's a fantastic shape- so exaggerated and loping.
      I can just see him loping over the ice caps searching for some seals...
      His colour is so appropriate too, very realistic to what a polar bear actually is!

      I seen this piece before recently somewhere. Gorgeous shape which makes sense !~

      Thanks ever so much Lauren for your fabulous comment on this polar bear, isn't he truly lifelike in color and pose - I love to see the real ones moving slowly over the ice, they're really beautiful. Like other bears I believe they can run very fast when hunting though!

      Phil he is a very familiar looking polar bear in the white, alot of glassmakers have done similar ones - hard for me to take good pix as the white just blends in the background! Thank you for your wonderful compliment & I love the shape as well, very natural looking

      I love RSW designs. Isn’t this the best stylised polar bear ever!

      Thank you Karen for your fantastic praise & love for this RSW polar bear, I know, didn't he do a great realistic take on this arctic loper, I've got several polars in my collection but this white one is really my favorite. There are a few Willson Wedgwood animals still out there but I'm glad to say I've acquired quite a few, lucky me :)
