Charming and full of character, this small ceramic bear is a signed piece by German-Swedish artist Willi Fischer, produced for EGO Stengods in Sweden. Crafted in stoneware with a deep brown mottled glaze, the bear has a stylized, almost mythical expression — somewhere between sweet and serious.
Fischer's ceramic animals are beloved for their quiet presence, textured forms, and raw individuality. This is a lovely example: small enough to tuck onto a shelf, but detailed enough to stand out. Great for a collector, or anyone who appreciates Nordic folk expression in its more enigmatic form.
