Vintage Photographer Teddy Bear Figurine | Hand-Painted Resin 4 in / 10.2 cm | Blue Beret, Green Waistcoat, Old-Time Camera

📸 A dapper little bear who takes his job seriously!

This hand-painted resin figurine sits behind an old-fashioned box camera with bellows, wearing a cobalt-blue beret, deep-green waistcoat over a cream shirt, and a red bow tie. The modeling is wonderfully detailed—from the textured “fur” to tiny buttons and the camera’s lens housing, so it reads like a miniature scene on your shelf.

📐 Dimensions (approx.)
Height: 4 in (10.2 cm) • Width: 3¼ in (8.3 cm) • Depth: 3 in (7.6 cm)

✔️ Condition
Good vintage condition with light, expected signs of age. The bear’s right foot shows some discoloration and minor surface wear; small scuffs to high points of paint (please zoom photos). Felt pads on the base. “Made in China” label present. Clean, sturdy, and display-ready.

📜 Why we call them “Teddy” bears
The name comes from U.S. President Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt. In 1902, a political cartoon by Clifford Berryman depicted Roosevelt refusing to shoot a tied-up bear during a Mississippi hunt; the image went viral for its day and inspired Brooklyn toymaker Morris Michtom to sell a plush “Teddy’s Bear.” At the same time in Germany, Margarete Steiff’s company introduced the jointed bear 55PB (1902/1903), helping launch a worldwide craze.

Resin character figurines—especially whimsical animals with professions—boomed in home décor in the late 1980s–1990s (think Boyds Bears & Friends resin lines beginning in 1993). The material, painting style, felted base, and “Made in China” label are consistent with that era.

🧸 Set it beside vintage cameras and photo books,
🧸 park it on a studio desk for a wink of nostalgia,
🧸 or nestle it on a nursery or bookshelf to celebrate a love of photography.
