In the wild a bear demonstrates acts of self-healing through torpor or hibernation. Zuni animal fetish carvings with rounded backs represent the cave entrance to that place of restoration, they are called Medicine-bears. Owning a fetish pendant necklace such as this one can be a good reminder that these qualities reside in ourselves, we just need to summon them. Overlaid on a bed of watery mother-of-pearl is a gorgeous mosaic from Mongolian turquoise and natural gaspeite. The powerful bear has jet inlaid eyes and a handmade bale fixture, all together measuring about 3 1/2" long, 3" wide and 1/2" deep. The leather chocker is complimentary and measures approximately 20" long. A versatile fetish pendant by Brian Yatsattie that's reversible too.
