Sioux Indian Vintage Beaded Mirror Pouch BAG

This Sioux Indian Vintage Beaded Mirror Pouch is a true collectors item! This one of a kind Indian artifact is an old one, but how old it is we can't tell. This old Mirror Pouch was made by hand from genuine buckskin leather with a rawhide closure. This Mirror Pouch is of the old traditional style with long genuine buckskin leather fringe with tin cones hanging from the bottom. This artifact also features horse hair and some of the hand stitched bead work that the Sioux Indians are famous for. Petite, blue glass seed beads and hand painted porcupine quill beads give this buckskin bag a lot of color. This Sioux Indian Mirror Pouch is 2-3/4" by 4". The fringe is approximately 7" long. The handle is 5" long. Some of the porcupine quill beads have been worn out over the years, see photo. Don't let this great one of a kind Indian artifact pass you by!
