We know that some of you are real sticklers for tradition and it doesn't get more traditional than this guy. Rodney Laiwakete has carved this bear from Belgian marble and it has some nice veining and a couple of puffy clouds within the stone.

Rodney's profiles are very strong and this alert bear has a beautiful inlaid heartline of turquoise and red coral. He's even smiling -- check out that grin (vein within the stone). Turquoise inlaid eyes add a bit more color to this very Zuni Bear. 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.
