A dancing bear is able to balance on one foot, two feet, three and sometimes all four feet.

I have so much admiration for a carver capable of creating such a sculpture.

Enter Ottokie Samayualie and his four way dancing bear Brownie.

The colour of this stone is delicious.  

Rich, thick swirls of chocolate that contain bursts of golden brown speckles and fine gray veins. The effect is magnetic.  

I cannot keep my eyes off this stunning bear.

Then, there is Brownie's fantastic dancing and diving moves.

When you look at the different views of the sculpture,  you can actually feel his  movement as he flips back and forth from paw to foot.  

Ottokie's art is cherished by many of my clients. 

They look to Ottokie for innovation, and inspiration. 

You cannot have too many Ottokie dancing bears in your collection.

Brownie would be a welcome gift for that special someone.
