Leslie Smith , Navajo potter, has created a wonderful glazed and etched bear. Quite the impressive piece! The bear measures 8-1/2" long, 5-1/2" tall, and 2" wide.  Leslie has signed the bottom of the pottery 'L. Smith - Navajo'.  The designs make this piece quite distinctive.  One side has a row of 'feather' designs highlighted by other designs. The other side has 3 mountain designs highlighted by other designs.  Truly creative and gorgous. It will make a great addition to your display.  A piece to be treasured.

THE BEAR STORY:  Many Native American Tribes honored the spirit of the bear as a magical being, the Shaman of the animal world. The Bear is considered a totem for healing, protection and good fortune.
