A young black bear carved directly into the natural hollow of the log, stretching, climbing and peeking out at once. Tiny toes and claws emerge at four openings. Hand shaped, hand painted and hand textured, with no added parts.

Hand carved by Wyoming sculptor Jesse LaBenne from naturally fallen timber gathered in Wilson, Wyoming, minutes from Jackson Hole and the Tetons. Part of the Teton Bear Collection.

One of one. No two pieces can be made the same way again.
