This is a gorgeous and rare dancing bear by master Inuit carver Pudlalik Shaa from Cape Dorset. 

Normally, Pudlalik Shaa makes beautiful masterpiece geese and dancing geese transformation which is a rarity for Pudalik Shaa. The proportions are perfect and the carving is well balanced. This bear has a whimsical flow to it that captivates the essence of a dancing bear.

What I especially admire about his pieces are its curvatures and colours. The stone intensifies the overall stature of the piece.

This carving is completely perfect.
