{"product_id":"black-bear-walking-pin-m033","title":"Black Bear Walking Pin M033","description":"\u003cp\u003eOften simply called the “Blackie,” the Black Bear is an iconic North American mammal, known for its strength and adaptability. Ursus americanus is widely distributed throughout the forests and woodlands of North America, and Black Bears are affectionately known as “Bruins,” a nod to that scientific name. Their coats come in a wide range of colors — black, brown, cinnamon, and even a rare bluish hue — so despite the name, not all Black Bears are black. They share a family connection with other bear species like the Grizzly Bear and the Polar Bear. Resourceful and intelligent, Black Bears keep a versatile diet of berries, nuts, fish, and small mammals, and they are skilled climbers and swimmers, adapting to various habitats. For much of the year they are solitary animals, though family groups can be seen during mating and rearing seasons. Typically shy and avoidant of humans, they may still be encountered where food is plentiful. These magnificent creatures hold a special place in North American wildlife, embodying both the beauty and the wildness of the continent’s natural landscapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e certified American pewter, lead-free, with a traceable alloy test for every order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinishes:\u003c\/strong\u003e antique pewter ($18), copper-plated ($24), gold-plated ($30), hand-painted ($70)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade:\u003c\/strong\u003e hand-finished in Port Gamble, Washington, USA, from a line of pewter jewelry crafted in America since 1991\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it lead-free?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes.

And each clutch seats into a small groove on the post with a firm, satisfying click — haptic feedback that tells you it's locked, and a detail cheaper pins skip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHand-painted, marine-grade finish.\u003c\/strong\u003e Each hand-painted piece is carefully painted by an artisan right in our studio in Port Gamble, WA.
