The "Bear Standing" cast iron bank was created by the Kenton Hardware Manufacturing Company around 1900. It is a charming and iconic example of American folk art, featuring a standing bear with a whimsical, childlike charm. The bank has a white enamel coating that has aged over time, revealing a fascinating and unique patina of green and brown. The simple, yet effective design, and the weathered finish lend a sense of nostalgia to this endearing piece.
