The stunning bright turquoise on my Zuni bear carving

Really love how bright it is, especially in certain lightings. The sun was bright today and brought out his beautiful colors. I love just looking at him. I have other Zuni carvings too, but this one is my largest and has the most outstanding heartline :^) -------->
This is my first post. I hope you guys enjoy and have a nice day!

Hello and welcome to you and your beautiful bear! That turquoise sure does glow in the sunshine :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: I love Zuni carvings, too. May I ask what stone the body of your bear is carved from?

Hey thanks friend!
Sorry should have mentioned that in the listing lol
Hes made of blue augite with turquoise & red coral offerings on top. I believe the arrowhead is mother-of-pearl too.
Made by artist Stewart Alonzo. I bought it on the New Mexico Bead & Fetish Co. website, and they got a couple more blue augite fetishes if you’re interested :^)
