Bear Live Edge Cedar Panel BroochThis Bear Cedar Panel has been sandblasted by Native American artist Trevor Hunt from the Kwakiutl or Kwakwaka'wakw Nation. It has been carved from live edge red cedar. The Bear Symbol represents strength, family, vitality courage and health. The bear is thoughtful and independent, with little need for fellowship. The bear is also self contained and strong willed in nature. A Bear is of great support and comfort to those who crave human company simply
