This piece is well kept, from the 20th Century and would have held a rolled up feathered headdress war bonnet / dance bonnet. The case itself measures 24.5"L by 8"W by 5.25"D with additional shoulder strap that sits about 12" off the body when drawn and 15-17"L ties fringes on top. All the ties and fringes are Indian tanned hide.
