The listing, OBSIDIAN CARVED FOX BEAD...BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND. ONLY ONE AVAILABLE has ended.
It seems I am not the only one who fell in love with this darling obsidian fox. I have gotten several requests to put the extra one I had up for auction, so here goes. First let me say he is very difficult to photograph, so please forgive the pictures.

So this little guy comes with a very impressive pedigree.
Like I said, I have never been so taken with a bead before...but what a focal point he is! He will make a really fantastic piece of jewelry.
This is the last one I have. I may see if I can get another one, but it wouldn't be available for awhile. So if you are interested, may I suggest bidding on this little fellow since I may not be able to obtain any more.
Thanks for checking out my auction...Good luck and happy bidding!
