Tony Evans
(American, 1942-2009)
Group of three bear figures, circa 1970s
Raku-fired pottery
All three bears are signed to the underside. The largest bear, numbered "793" to the underside, measures approximately 13" x 13" x 13". The seated bear holding a sheet copper fish, numbered "1609" to the underside, measures approximately 8 1/2" x 7 3/4" x 7 1/2". The final bear, numbered "168" to the underside, measures approximately 6 3/4" x 9 1/2" x 6 3/4".
The bear standing with a front paw raised is missing a copper fish in that paw. Otherwise very good condition, with no chips or cracks noted.
