Description
Native American, North America, Central United States, Great Plains, Plains Indians, ca. late 19th to early 20th century CE. A beautiful and colorful belt comprised of hundreds of tiny seed beads in a palette of emerald, sapphire, pink, and fuchsia hues. The tight composition of the beads makes for a dense repeating motif, with each panel alternating between a central concentric diamond or a blank diamond surrounded by four colored triangles. From the terminals extend a strip of umber-hued satin meant to be tightly-knotted to secure the belt to one's waist. A fabulous example! Size (without straps): 31.75" L (80.6 cm); size (with straps): 50" L (127 cm).
