Indonesian Tube Agate Medicine Bear by Chris Sandoval

A gray, cream, tan and brown colored Indonesian tube agate medicine bear carved by Chris Sandoval slightly crouched down looking slightly to its right side with turquoise inlaid eyes. There is a lovely offering bundle strapped to the top of the bear's back with sinew featuring one turquoise, melon shell, and spiny oyster bead surrounding one longer piece of branch coral. Tube agate is a micro crystalline quartz that has inclusions in the shape of tubes. Chris left one crystalline void right behind the offering bundle - where the branch coral rests. Agates are part of the chalcedony family with metaphysical qualities, including: stabilizing, strengthening, improving memory, and increasing energy. The bear is endowed with curative powers, strength, adaptability and courage - powers that can influence both the spiritual and physical realm Artist: Chris Sandoval Size: 1-1/8 in. wide x 2-3/8 in. long x 1-1/2 in. tall #62381
