Click to order this Bear


I'm partial to the darker colored bears, I think. I just love this one Manuel has carved from Belgian marble. It measures 3 5/8" long and has a leaner profile that some of his other bears in this showing. The contrasting pheasant feathers with black veining are an outstanding foundation for the offering bundle which consists of a Picasso marble wolf and eagle and a serpentine mountain lion. The arrowhead is hand-knapped and made of Picasso marble. All the components are tied on with melon and penshell heishe, turquoise and red coral beads. Very traditional and powerful!

There's a special page here at Zuni Spirits devoted to the Manuel Weahkee family .. you can read more about them here.
