Vintage Native American Beaded Purse Bag Zippered Leather Interior

Description

Today we're offering a wonderful, Native American, vintage, beaded purse/bag. This work is attributed to the NW Coast Salish tribes.
This stunning, beaded bag measures 9.5" at it's tallest point and 6.5" at it's widest point. The strap is about 24" long. The interior is orange fabric. The glass beads are orange, red, white, blue and black. There are blue birds decorating the top of the bag, diamonds in the body and strap. The entire bag is beaded all the way around a leather, zippered pouch. The zipper has some age to it and the leather bag is wanting to curl on one side. It is old and fragile, so we don't recommend actually using it.
This bag is part of a collection belonging to the Doran family of N.W. Washington who spent years assembling a (primarily) NW Native American collection. Along with Indian baskets, there are carvings, bead-work and various other artifacts that make up this wonderful collection. It is our privilege to be able to offer this collection to you on their behalf. So please save us to your favorite sellers list so that you'll be notified as we add new listings.
Please examine pictures carefully and feel free to ask questions.
