This carving is more animated and dynamic than his usual dancing bears who are a bit more reserved and lumbering. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI have never seen Nuna carve a bear with this kind of personality and presence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt the age of 70, Nuna has been experiencing health issues which have affected his ability to carve with regularity. We can’t predict the future, but I can say with confidence, that ALL of Nuna’s famous bears will double or triple in value when he retires.\u003cbr\u003eThis magnificent beast is a prime example of the potential for meaningful investment in Inuit carvings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis enigmatic bear is spirited. He is delicately balanced, which is difficult to achieve except by the most talented carvers. His lines are crisp and fluid. You feel his massive body moving forward.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe apple green serpentine stone which Nuna chose for this bear, is opulent and vibrant. The stone imparts majesty and a youthful soul to this spectacular sculpture.\u003cbr\u003eThis piece is large in height and length.\u003cbr\u003eThis is the quintessential Nuna Parr Bear.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor the Inuit art enthusiast, I do not need to explain the notoriety and pride that comes with owning a Nuna Parr bear.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePure and simple, he is the best Inuit artist in the world for bears!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is an investment piece extraordinaire.
