Standing at 5″ tall, each MAQET art bear has been limited to just 50 pieces, with a price tag of $50 plus shipping. Head over to the store now to grab yours…

What’s the story on that 5th bear? Howie throws in a wrench with a Whites Stripes bear covered in the band’s signature red and white. The White Stripes bear is a “two-for” for art and music fans, as it reflects the aesthetics of both the band and De Stijl; the latter being the title of the duo’s successful 2000 album.”
