A pouch constructed out several pieces of native tanned hide, the most prominent of which is an elongated tapering piece which is beaded on the recto. The tapering flap is decorated with folded long fringe on either side and decorated with sinew-sewn micro beads. The design consists of a yellow center line (two shades) which is flanked on either side by lanes in which a yellow lane is filled by a column of navy triangles. This motif is repeated along the edges of the flap. Attached to the back of the pouch is a long undecorated strap.

21” long and 5” wide (pouch); 34” long and 1.5” wide (strap)
