A bear's animal medicine or its natural traits encompass qualities like strength, healing, journeying and family. Carved from a handsome piece of onyx whose two sides are equally beautiful, Bernard Laiwakete's strong Bear measures about 4 5/8" long, 1 3/4" wide and 2 1/2 tall. An exquisitely inlaid alternating turquoise heartline and eyes light up the golden and milky hues of the mineral. The heartline represents the breath or essence of an animal. The offering bundle from a Zuni Sunface element along with heishe beads is a gift from the carver honoring the bear's spirit. The neat Sunface button is created from turquoise, coral, jet and mother-of-pearl.
