Cheyenne Beadwork Belt - Vintage and Beautiful!

Description

Proudly presented today is this beautiful and vintage example of Plains Indian beadwork, in the form of ornately beaded belt. It is of
Cheyenne
origin, and is 28 inches long and a little over 2 inches across. i am guessing that a belt of this length was meant for a child. The decoration consists of stylized flowers flanked by chevrons.
The
workmanship
is just incredible. It dates from the 1960's
and is in very good condition, without any loose beads. It looks to me to be mounted on some kind of commercial leather, either kid or calf. It's extremely soft. It is part of a collection of a dear departed friend who was a very well-known and highly respected Native American teacher,
lecturer
and curator, and it is an honor to assist her family in making part of her vast collection available to you. Buy with complete confidence, for as you all know, if the buyer is unsatisfied for ANY reason, i will immediately return the full purchase price, return shipping included. This piece would look great in any collection. Many Thanks for your kind consideration, and as always, Best Regards, Rich
