This is a gorgeous bear by Markoosie Papigatok. The proportions and movement are immaculate. Moreover, the dark stone is outrageous and striking. This is what immediately caught my attention when I saw this piece for the first time.

Markoosie is extremely talented for dancing bears and this what his specialty is.

This particular bear is quite large because it's chubby. 

It's definitely a very happy bear. Will make a great center piece.
