The Jim Shore Christmas figurine 'Bearing Gifts' is from the Bearstone Collection. The figurine is a bear in a Santa suit in a sleigh full of gifts. It is 10cm long and 8 cm high. There is a quilt pattern around the edge of the sleigh boxed As a young boy growing up in rural South Carolina, Jim Shore spend many hours with his grandmother, a master quilter, gaining an appreciation for what would later become his passion. His early fascination of design and colour found in classic American quilts has led him to become one of todays' premier folk artist. Jim brings his passion and his vision to the award winning collection of resin figurines from 'The Bearstone Collection' from The Folks at Boyds by Enesco. Combining Jim Shore's inspirational use of colour and testural design with the unmistakeable 'heartcrafted' style of Boyds Bearstone figurines makes each unique creation a treasured keepsake for years to come.
