A soapstone bear by Tim L. Henry standing on a flat stone slab with rough edges. The compact figure has a squared muzzle, small ears and broad legs, with green-gray and tan stone patterns running through both figure and base. The underside is inscribed ‘Done by: Tim L. Henry 2016’. Cracks are visible in the base and through a rear leg. Staff inspected the piece and reported that the leg appears previously glued and felt sturdy at cataloging; the repair and crack lines remain visible. Overall dimensions are approximately 6.25 inches long by 4.5 inches wide by 4 inches high.
