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. 

Overlay is created by “sweating”, or soldering, two pieces of silver together. The top piece contains a design element which is meticulously cut out of silver. The bottom piece is oxidized and often textured to produce a contrasting background. They then carefully file, buff and polish to produce the fine finish on their beautiful item.
