Bear Claw Belt Buckle by Navajo artist Wilbur Musket. Sterling Silver with Turquoise and Coral accents.

The Bear represents great strength, power and self knowledge. It is the "Great Protector", the "Sacred Bear". It is a spiritual guide and also carries within supernatural powers. The Bear is a powerful healing symbol. A bear's claw was one of the talismans frequently included in medicine bundles, and warriors in some tribes wore necklaces of bear claws to bring them power and strength.
