ABOUT PRODUCTID 123
This decorative figurine, designed by Vicke Lindstrand for Upsala-Ekeby and produced in Sweden in the 1940s, depicts a seated, slightly leaning polar bear rendered in a stylized, minimalist form typical of Scandinavian modernism from this era. Crafted from ceramic or stoneware, the piece is finished in a uniform, warm ivory white with a subtle yellowish undertone. The matte surface features a gentle sheen that highlights the smooth, rounded contours. Facial features and paws are only lightly indicated, giving the figurine an abstract, gentle presence. The construction is seamless, with no visible joints or assembly marks. There are no signs of wear, cracks, or chips; the condition is excellent.This figurine quietly echoes the spirit of 1940s Northern Europe: calm, minimalist, committed to the beauty of everyday objects. The polar bear, captured in stillness, seems to tell stories of Swedish mornings and a design philosophy where simplicity and harmony prevailed. The creamy ceramic softly reflects light, embodying the Scandinavian idea of restraint and understated expression.The figurine could be displayed on a low shelf in the living room as a discreet sculptural accent alongside books or ceramics in natural tones. It would suit Scandinavian interiors, as well as minimalist or eclectic collector's spaces. Paired with pale wood, glass, or linen textiles, it will emphasize the organic line and tranquil character of the space.
