Gas-per

The choice of green turquoise gives the bear a sense of vitality and connection to nature, while the tarnished silver heartline adds an air of antiquity and storytelling. You can almost feel the weight of history in your hands as you hold it. The bear itself represents strength, courage, and protection in Native American culture, making it a powerful symbol to have in one's possession. The combination of the green turquoise and the tarnished silver only enhances these qualities, creating a striking visual contrast that captivates the eye.
