Native American Hand Beaded Medicine Bag: Sky Blue w Turtle

Local Oglala Lakota Nation member Kevin Fast Horse Sr. hand beads this handy bag with glass hand cut glass Italians beads. He is skilled and takes the time to spin the beads on his needle so they'll lay exactly to create the illusion of a perfect circle for the turtle body.

The bag body is constructed from commercially tanned leather, he a shapes the leather so he can cut even fringe on the bottom of the bag. He adds a long leather tie so the bag can be cinched closed. The actual useable bag section measures 11 inches long by 5 1/2 inches wide.

Measures: Length 18 | Width 5 1/2 | Deep 1/2 inches
All measurements are approximate.
