It's easy to be captivated by bears!

John Muir once wrote, "Bears are made of the same dust as we, and they breathe the same winds and drink of the same waters. A bear's days are warmed by the same sun, his dwellings are overdomed by the same blue sky, and his life turns and ebbs with heart pulsing like ours. He was poured from the same first fountain."

For Hopi people as with other Indigenous peoples, the much-revered bear has its own clan. 

Award winning Hopi jeweler Mitchell Sockyma (b. 1942) has beautifully depicted a majestic bear in 14k gold with this sterling silver overlay cuff bracelet.

It's a perfect piece of expertly handmade, completely wearable yet uniquely striking jewelry that captures our adoration for these powerful animals that connect us to the natural world.

Mitchell Sockyma's bracelet measures 5 1/2" inside with a 1 1/2" opening. Width is 15/16". Signed on the inside with Sockyma's MS and turtle hallmark.

The cuff is from an estate collection.
