Sterling Silver Bear Paw Pendant Native American

Vintage Native American Sterling Silver bear paw pendant. This pendant is in a shadowbox style with oxidation in the cut out areas. The claw has a nice curve and a hidden bail. It is a heavy and substantial piece; it will not bend or flex. In Native American culture, a bear claw is considered a powerful symbol of strength, courage, and protection. It is often worn as jewelry and represents the wearer's connection to the bear's power. This pendant is unsigned like many older pieces of Native American jewelry and those for personal wear.
