Scrumptious!
The stone of this TEACUP sized Dancing bear is pure magic . . . . on one side deep and dark chocolate and on the other golden nuggets.
This distribution of colour in an Inuit carving is rare.
As collectors of Inuit art (all art really) we keep our senses tuned to the "exceptional" and "entrancing".
HALFSIES's appeal isn't just his colour!
His lines and angles are smooth and round, less angular than many Dancing bears.
His face and muzzle in particular, are exceptionally beautiful.
These petite pieces (whether they be Inuit carvings, dolls or any decorative art) are cherished and sought after by large numbers of collectors.
In the Gallery, I often partner these tiny bears together.
Suddenly, an energy exists between the bears which is endearing and joyful.
