Masterpiece Carving! Museum quality Sculpture!

Note**  It is extremely difficult for an artist to carve a 3-way dancing bear. Ottokie is a Master carver of these rare 3-way bears. The last time we received a beautiful bear like this, was from Esau Kripanik over 5 years ago.

Barney can dance on either foot and his right paw.

His movements and animation are incredible.

In addition, Barney's dark stone is mirror-like and absolutely electrifying.

This is one of our favorite dancing bears in the gallery.

Ottokie is among the best artists today for carving dancing and walking bears. His pieces have so much flow and movement to them and really exemplify the spirit of a dancing bear.

I never hesitate to acquire his pieces because they are perfectly carved.
