This bear fetish screams "old style" in many ways. First it is a found stone, specimens which we have seen in the Zuni Mountains in streams. It appears to be a form of travertine but it is very heavy for its size. In another way, the minimalistic amount of carving to create the bear, with more of a shape-refining going on rather than the typical forming, grinding, cutting, shaping and polishing steps. Also the offering arrowhead looks more like a functional hunting point rather than a decorative adornment like most fetishes in contemporary times. So the fetish has an antiquated feel to it but in a luxurious package.


The raised and rounded eyes are inlaid of jet and the offering bundle consists of an obsidian small game point with red coral and turquoise beads tied with sinew. The fetish is initialed with a backwards F overlaid with a forward E, or his version of FE Zuni "02" on the bottom of the bear. A truly great fetish made of an uncommon raw material.
