A finely carved Japanese Kibori Kuma, crafted from richly grained wood and depicting a bear mid-stride with a salmon clasped in its jaws. This expressive sculpture hails from Hokkaido, where such carvings became popular in the early 20th century as a fusion of indigenous Ainu artistry and Japanese folk tradition. The bear’s fur is rendered with dynamic, flowing cuts, while the fish is delicately detailed, capturing a moment of primal vitality. A striking piece of cultural heritage and craftsmanship.
