A pudgy pink, red sienna, orange and tan veined dolomite medicine bear with turquoise inlaid eyes picked up directly from Peter Gasper, Jr. Peter's mother; Dinah Gasper helps make the super fine bundles - this one has a gold-lip arrowhead, a turquoise and coral bead and penn and melon shell heishi. The medicine bear shape is thought to resemble a cave opening - depicting a bear coming out of hibernation & the pose is the bear sniffing the ground for healing herbs. The bear is endowed with curative powers, strength, adaptability & courage - powers that can influence both the spiritual & physical realm.
