First Nations Bear, small, $195 and measures 12 X 4 inches. Decorated with traditional red and black. Kwakiutl First Nation.

A member of a famous and large carving family, this artist is a member of the Kwakwaka’wakw (Kwakiutl) First Nation, with heritage connecting also to the Coast Salish.

The Native Bear Symbol represents strength, family, vitality courage and health. The bear is thoughtful and independent, with little need for fellowship. The bear is also self-contained and strong-willed in nature. A Bear is of great support and comfort to those who crave human company simply for personal reassurance rather than for the simple pleasure of being with friends. He makes lonely periods of life far easier. Thank you spiritsofthewestcoast.com
