BEAR # 52  ARTIST: POPPLESTONE BEARS designed by CAROLE BOWLING & handcrafted by CHARLOTTE KANE   SOLD
Carol Bowling is best known for her dolls.  She has won several DOTY (Doll Of The Year) Awards and was the subject of Katherine Lasky's book Dollmaker.  Carol designed these two bears for Popplestone Bears of Massachusetts.  They were handcrafted by Charlotte Kane in 1985.  This is "Z," one of a very special breed of bears named for a local name for cobblestones rounded smooth by waves.  Z has black glass eyes, a pompom nose, and wears a blue ribbon with a bell on it.  He's 8" tall in the sitting position.  His design makes him sit with his arms behind him, in that they do not move.  His legs do move, though he's not jointed.  This bear comes with a booklet telling the story of the Popplestone Bears.
Hi! I'm Z! Popplestones are lucky. A special profile.

Don't you like my pompom nose? My sewn in tag. My booklet.

BEAR # 295  ARTIST: POPPLESTONE BEARS designed by CAROLE BOWLING & handcrafted by CHARLOTTE KANE   SOLD

Like Z, Ginger Peachy was designed by Carol Bowling and was handcrafted by Charlotte Kane in 1985.  She is also one of that special breed of bears named for a local name for cobblestones rounded smooth by waves.  She has black glass eyes, a pompom nose, and wears a purple ribbon.  She's 8 1/2" tall in the sitting position.  She is not jointed, but unlike his brother above, can sit with her arms in front of or behind her.  This bear comes with a booklet telling the story of the Popplestone Bears.
Hi.  I'm Ginger Peachy. Could you use a lucky bear next time you buy a lottery ticket? I think I'm cuter than Z.

What's cuter, most pompom nose or my purple ribbon? My sewn in tag. My booklet.
