No just in the jewelry LOL ;D I carved these for myself a while back. I got the bracelet & bolo done but haven't gotten to the belt buckle. That's what the loose bear in for. I had done 5 but made one into a bolo for a friend. The bracelet was inspired by one of Leekia's works I saw in a book. But he only used one bear. The funny thing is when I'm wearing the set. People notice & comment on the bracelet & don't even seem to notice there's a bolo too? LOL     Kingman Turquoise Thanks for looking. Comments/questions are always welcome. Mike |

Did you carve the silver in the center of the bracelet also? I know that the bears are a ton of work because I had to carve part of the foot pendant that I made. "ATTA BOY" good job

Warren I'm not sure what you meen. The bracelet it self is two pieces of half round. On either side of twisted wire & soldered together.

Very nice, I see bears in the bush all the time but it is much nicer seeing pics of these than standing in the middle of the trail i am trying to hike down.
