This is a great fat honey bear that was carved by Zuni fetish carvers, Vernon Lunasee and his wife, Prudencia Quam. They carved this bear from picture jasper. Picture jasper reminds me of the walls of sandstone in the West because of the striking sections of color within the stone. This bear is fairly large and he is standing with his paws held in front of him. This bear has inlaid turquoise eyes. The bottom of the bear is signed "VLPQ", a combination of the carver's initials. This great bear is 1 1/2" long, and 1 3/4" wide and 2 1/2" tall. A bear is an animal of strength, introspection and self-knowledge. The cost for shipping and handling is $6.00.
