claw bear

claw bear is part folk art, part street beast—a chunky, ink-detailed figure bursting with attitude and charm.

Constructed from raw geometric wood blocks and secured with screws and glue, this CLAW original stands tall with a bold, toy-like silhouette. It’s got the stance of a lumbering mascot, with human posture and beastly details. The squared limbs and layered parts give it a stacked, stylized form—like a cartoon sketch brought to life and built to stand.

The face is all personality: sharp, jagged teeth, a bold red nose, and black ink detailing that gives the snout an edge. Claw-like marks on the arms and legs push the animal vibe, while the crisscrossed body plays somewhere between fur and flannel—half bear, half brawler. The shorts and boots are minimal but grounded in solid design, balancing roughness with character.

claw bear blends character design, folk structure, and streetwise flair. A gritty, one-of-a-kind figure with real presence—ready to take its place on any surface.
