We were surprised to see that the carver of this green fluorite medicine bear is Burt Awelagte. His carvings are usually thicker, more whimsical and less traditional than this large Oso. He's inlaid the eyes of lapis and gifted the bear with an offering of shell, turquoise, red coral and amber. A nice, traditional medicine bear from one of our favorite younger carvers. Initialed on the bottom.

**Please note: The "fracture" lines in this stone are naturally occuring and stable. However, don't try to bounce this or any other carving to see how high it will go. You'll be sadly disappointed and wind up with only pieces where there once was a whole!**
