Darren Boone: Pipestone, Bear with Sun Face & Bundle
Boone
The craftsmanship on this little guy is top-notch. The rich, reddish-brown color of the pipestone adds an earthy and rustic vibe to the whole piece. And the fact that there's also a sunface inlayed on its side just takes it to another level. I mean, can we talk about the attention to detail here? Every curve and contour of that bear is meticulously carved, making it look incredibly lifelike. You can almost imagine it coming to life and roaming through the wilderness.
Bear (Anshe): Bear was the principal animal for the Pueblo People and they are the most prevalent subject of Zuni fetishes. Bear fetishes are used for healing, protection, strength, journeying, mothering, hunting and gathering. Bear‚ hibernation reminds us of the value of going within.
