    Description

    CAUTION : EBAY is suddenly loaded with various pieces of fake beadwork as well as reproductions. Knife cases appear to be the most involved at the moment. You can often tell by the ridiculously low prices asked as well as the fact that the same person has many similar pieces for sale..real ones are hard to come by. This piece is a real one and is sinew beaded and sewn with various greasy beads including early greasy crow pinks and greasy blues as well as a later 1910 era greasy yellow. The Assiniboine come from northeastern Montana and are one of the northernmost branches of the Dakota/Nakoda. Perfect to use or keep for your display and it has NO RESERVE !
