This charming statuette, hand-carved by Made Wirata in Bali, depicts a curious brown bear. The beast stands on his hind feet, as if investigating something new and strange. The artisan crafts the piece from suar wood (an Indonesian hardwood) with great detail.

I love bears and have bear furniture pieces, done in the style of Black Forest bears. This bear has a sweet face, she is carved expertly and well made. I keep her on my side table by my side, in the living room where most of the other bears hang out.

So well done! Beautifully carved. It is fun to move him around the house and see him in a different lighting...
