Plateau Beaded Bag With Feathers

This is an interesting Plateau beaded bag. It has a design of a large red star with six beaded eagle feathers and long fringe along the bottom. One of the interesting aspects of this bag is that the back was set up as a clutch purse with a zipper in the middle and a pocket for a mirror. I have never seen a Plateau beaded bag set up this way. What a cool piece with traditional form and design, and a "modern" use.
