This little turquoise bear is beautifully carved and polished by the very famous carvers Peter and Dinah Gasper who usually do much larger pieces. I've photographed the "pinto" side, the other side of the bear is almost entirely turquoise in color with very little matrix so wearing him the other way gives a different look. The Pinto Bear will be included in an upcoming book, he's so pleased! Details when the book is released.

LOVE BEADS: This piece includes "love beads," beads given to me after the fire by friends and strangers. The necklace carries the energy of their loving concern.
