Articulated Teddy Bear Brooch Vintage, Signed

Lightly worn, we found this collectible articulated golden teddy bear pin at an estate sale.

From the Metropolitan Museum of Art (MMOA), this fun brooch was hand signed BATYA.

The back, where you'll find the signature, appears to be soldered. This is not a stamped signature or soldered logo. It is the real signature. You'll find other massed produced teddy pins with stamped or soldered signatures. Not this one!

Vintage - hand signed BATYA - hard to read - not the printed or stamped signature. Back appears to be soldered (where signature is) - others were mass produced with stamped signature or soldered logo. He is about 1-5/8 inch tall by 1-1/4 inch from side to side and 1/2 inch from front to back.

Our fellow is fully articulated - his head, arms and paws. He is golden, with accents of silver on his ear tips and elsewhere. His nose is black enamel or jet crystal (it's hard to tell without altering him). And his eyes are emerald crystal.

Your bear will arrive in a nice gift box for keeping or giving.
