Sapa Ashoona specializes in carving superlative and spirited dancing bears.

Have you ever seen such radiant green stone? This is our glow-in-the-dark bear!

And to accentuate this glorious stone, Sapa has approached this bear with a minimalist style.

For instance, notice how the bear’s features are not intricately detailed or realistic. The paws and feet are continuous with the arms and legs. There are no distinct claws or toes. This allows the viewer to concentrate on the stone instead of the lines and proportions of the carving.

I love the angular features of this sculpture. This is not a soft and cuddly teddy bear.

This is an architectural masterpiece.

Perfect for the collector who appreciates distinctive art pieces.

As a gift, I would give this bear to my Bohemian friend; the person for whom esthetics is all important. But honestly, this bear would enchant any art lover.
