Sun

The Sun represents abundance, life, healing, and warmth. Released from a box by the Raven, the Sun Chief inhabits the sky and could only be reached by climbing a chain of arrows. The Sun is often carved on totems and masks and sits atop the tallest totem pole.

Otter

The Otter symbolizes loyalty, honesty, and lasting friendship. A spirit who is trusting, inquisitive and bright. He is serious about his duties, but light-hearted about life and has the wisdom to place as much importance on work as on play.

From his cousin Nelson Cross he learned to work with metal and, since 1983 has worked in both silver and gold. His jewellery shows his talent and skill and the individuality of his style. Robert signs his artwork as B.Cross, as his friends call him Bob.
