Vintage Sioux Indian Beaded Buckskin Hat Band.
This Vintage Sioux Indian Beaded Hat Band is a great artifact. This belt looks like it is an old one, how old we can't tell for sure. It features some truly impressive seed bead work. These seed beads have been intricately hand stitched together to create a traditional colorful and Indian runner design. This Beaded hat band is 1-1/2" wide. And, it is 21-1/4" long. It has lost some beads over the years, see photo.
The objects man makes are called artifacts, and every artifact, whether it is beautiful or ugly, crude or refined, utilitarian or ceremonial, is a reflection and product of man's skills, his techniques, his arts. Artifacts reflect the ideas, the concepts, and the knowledge acquired or learned as a member of a tribe. Members of a particular tribe use certain techniques, and create a particular style because that is their tradition. |
