Plateau Bag with Indian Head and Shaker Religion Bell

$ 2,500.00

This is a great pictorial bag with a large bust of an Indian in an eagle feather headdress and a large hand bell with an eagle feather tied to it in the upper right corner. The hand bell is used in the Native American Indian Shaker Church. The Indian with the eagle headdress is in profile and has a red heart necklace around his neck and a round white earring like the shell discs they wear. The edging, back, as well as the long fringe at the bottom are all made with native tanned hide. This is a great bag for a collector.
