Nigel is a hand carved wooden bear, standing upright on his hind legs with a warm, friendly expression and a rounded black nose. Chainsaw carved from a single block of cedar, his fur is worked in fine texture from head to paw, and he’s mounted on a natural log base with the bark left on.
At 700mm tall, he’s a good statement-size piece for a doorway, porch or garden border. Like every carving we make, Nigel is one of a kind, hand carved in the Forest of Dean, and makes a striking handmade garden ornament or gift.
Let Nigel bring a touch of the wild into your world.

Questions about Nigel the Bear
Is there a guarantee if my carving splits?
Yes. Every carving is cut from a single log and can split a little as the wood dries. If a split spoils your enjoyment of it, we repair it free of charge for the first 12 months, as long as it has been kept outside in full shade, away from direct sun and heat. After 12 months we can still repair it for a small charge, and you pay the carriage. Why carvings crack.
Where should I keep my carving outside?
Stand it in full shade on well-drained ground, away from direct sunlight and any heat source, and treat it with wood preservative from time to time. That is also the condition of our 12-month split repair guarantee. Full care guide.
How long does delivery take and what does it cost?
Delivery is free to mainland UK addresses. Most carvings are dispatched within 5 to 10 working days of payment, often sooner, and we email you a tracking number when it is on its way. It travels in a cardboard box packed with bubble wrap and packing noodles. We can't deliver to Ireland or overseas.
Can I collect it instead?
Yes, collection is free from near Longhope, Gloucestershire. Tick “I'll collect it myself” in your basket before checking out and we will get in touch to arrange a day and time.
Can I return it?
Yes. If you change your mind, tell us within 14 days of receiving it, then send it back within 14 days. You pay the carriage for an unwanted return and we refund the way you paid within 14 days of getting it back. If it arrives damaged, send us photos and your order details and we collect and repair it for free, or replace it if needed. Full details are on our delivery and returns page. Delivery & returns.
