{"product_id":"64792","title":"Septarian Nodule Bear With a Maiden by Kateri Sanchez","description":"A striking muted olive, crystalline gold and brown veined septarian nodule medicine bear with jet inlaid eyes carved by Kateri Sanchez. Kateri has placed a maiden on the left back end of the bear's body - quite strikingly noticeable due to the contrasting gold-lip inlaid face and jet features. Kateri also incised star bursts and one dragonfly around the maiden - then she inlaid them with jet pigment. The Zuni tribe view the bear as a powerful symbol of healing, protection, strength, and introspection. As the designated protector of the West, the bear is considered a vital spiritual guide and is a source of wisdom during times of change and transition. The maiden symbolizes abundance, fertility and feminine energy. In Zuni tradition, combining a corn maiden and a bear represents the ultimate balance between the life-giving forces of nature and physical protection. It pairs the sustenance of the harvest with fierce guardianship, \u003cbr\u003eArtist: Kateri Sanchez (signed)\u003cbr\u003eSize: 1 in. wide x 2 in. long x 1-1\/2 in. tall\u003cbr\u003e#64792","brand":"Kateri Sanchez","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46090238165226,"sku":"64792","price":280.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0765\/1909\/files\/64792_f_3a09516a-e91d-4899-bd08-02e0f09f02ff.jpg?v=1781599828","url":"https:\/\/sunshinestudio.com\/products\/64792","provider":"Sunshine Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
