A really cute pepperette designed as a Teddy Bear. Very realistically modelled and decorated this pepperette is lovely. The head has holes to shake the pepper out and the head pulls off to fill it. Fully hallmarked down the bear's back with partial hallmark on the lip of the head. A highly collectable and novelty silver item.
