Aw! This adorable couple by Ed Lementino is carved of black Belgian marble. The bears appear, at first glance, to be carved individually but they are actually one stone. The white veining is really nice and Ed's put a high polish to the couple. Their cuddling posture is indicative of most new parents and they're showing off their tiny turquoise cub resting on their backs. He's securely tied with white melon shell and tiny bits of turquoise.

Just a really sweet statement on family, unity or to up the cute factor in your bear herd. Signed.

BEAR: The bear represents the western direction in a protective and healing fetish set. He is associated with the color blue and known for his curative powers. Though all bears are healers, white bears are particularly powerful. Characteristics associated with bears include strength, courage, adaptability, healing and spiritual communion.
