I picked this piece up yesterday. This is a very odd piece that can be worn as a brooch or pendent. This piece is signed on the back but I can't quite make out the signature. I tried to several pics of back, hopefully these are clear. Any ideas as to signature or any other info?

Is that a bear in the middle holding a fish?
Roddyq, I don't know what, if anything, this is supposed to represent!
Thank you to all who stopped by!!
It's Jewish. There are three Jewish letters above the rubies.
Sorry - I should say Hebrew! Post in Judaica category, too.

You go Celiene!!
Oh my goodness, Celiene, I would have never guessed that!! I thought the first letter was like N or X!! Thank you soooo much!! I got this piece in the $1 box-guess I did ok :)
Yeah - you did! I was trying to find out about the One People with the hands shaking & the Dove. I wonder if that was a symbol of unity between Israelis & Palestinians? Or all Jewish peoples....
It was commissioned by Israel. He died a year later.
That is interesting!! Just glad you were able to solve this mystery for me!! Thanks
There are 2 Hebrew letters below the figure (bird?) at the top, too.
At first I thought it was a camel and those were its legs...!
Fascinating brooch and I'm so glad someone identified it for you :)
