This chunky little bobcat is carved from dolomite by the much loved Lena Boone. You'd be
hard pressed to find a sweeter lady. We are so fond of her traditionally styled carvings and she has
such a great eye for interesting stones. She's chosen dolomite for this carving and we love
the two-toned colors. A pale ribbon separates the beige color of the head from the darker
"taffy" color of the body. It's an added bonus when carvers use the colors within the stone to their
advantage.
Lena has gifted this little kitty with a beautiful abalone arrowhead tied on the side with
turquoise and red coral. Sweet but typically unsigned.
