This bear is beautifully carved from sodalite, its deep blue and indigo tones accented by natural white veining that gives the piece rich depth and character. The form is solid and well-proportioned, capturing the bear’s strength and grounded presence. Bright turquoise inlaid eyes provide striking contrast, adding life and expression to the carving. Smoothly polished to enhance the stone’s natural beauty, this piece is a striking example of Zuni craftsmanship and a timeless representation of the bear’s power and spirit.
