 above photo provided by The Golden Bear website Vail, Colorado gives many locals and visitors a chance to create memorable experiences that they will never forget. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could take home and wear a unique souvenir that symbolizes your time or visits in the Vail Valley? Of course… so it’s time for you to bring home a bear…not a brown bear, not a black bar, but a golden bear. The Golden Bear boutique store opened in 1975 in Vail and is located on Bridge Street in Vail Village. This particular bear symbol was quickly adopted as The Symbol of Vail Valley by locals and visitors alike. The Golden Bear tradition, which began with the design of the 1st Mama Bear pendant, has grown into a number of Golden Bear jewelry and gift items. Golden Bears are handcrafted here in the Golden Bear’s Vail studio by a team of skilled metalsmiths and are created in several sizes and styles of pendants, rings, bracelets, and earrings. The Golden Bear website now introduces you to original Golden Bear designs and latest creations.
