Dancing Bears Platter depicts the last full moon of fall, where all the bears in the valley gather for a big annual festival. It is a time when friends can retell favorite stories and review events of the year. In our world, we do this on New Year's Eve. For the bears, however, this celebration is the beginning of their season of hibernation. Angus and Daisy are the Fred Astair and Ginger Rogers of their valley. They danced till dawn at the Ball. This large earthenware platter is a trophy in their honor. See more BEARS
