"Large Hand Carved Wooden Bear In Brienz Circa 1930"
Large antique statue of a walking bear. Crafted from lime wood, intricately hand carved with naturalistic detail in Brienz, Switzerland, circa 1930. A fine example of the famous Black Forest wood carvings made in Switzerland.

The tradition of woodcarving in Brienz goes back to the middle of the 19th century. Locals were looking for new job opportunities. They used their skills in traditional craftsmanship, carving everyday objects and sculptures, and created a new activity. Many woodcarvers were educated at the Brienz School of Woodcarving, founded in 1884. Around 1900, the woodcarving industry had about 2000 carvers. Brienz woodcarvings have been successfully presented at several world exhibitions. With Gran Tour Tourism, wealthy people from all over the world have visited the area and brought home memories of woodcarving. Today, some companies, like Huggler Holzbildhauerei, still exist and make traditional carvings.
