Does anyone know the style/time period of this carved bear, thanks.

I have this stone bear I haven't been able to identify. I've seen this style of carving before, can't find the name. Tried Zuni, fetish, spirit, Inuit, Eskimo, Peruvian, etc., can't find this style of carving. He can stand or sit, he's 3.5" long and nearly 11 ounces, vintage.

Anyone know? Thank you so much!

Hi, 

This looks like a Mexico Black Obsidian carved stone figurine made to look like a southwester bear.
