Item Details
Description
**First Time At Auction**

Native American, Western United States, ca. 1940s to 1950s CE. A beaded collar necklace made from loom beaded seed beads on a cotton backing, rawhide leather straps, and tassels of beading with purple feathers. The piece is mounted in a modern wood frame under glass. The collar was acquired along the famous Route 66 at one of the trade posts / gift shops that once dotted this highway that connected Chicago to Los Angeles. Route 66 affected many different tribal lands and created a new market / customers for Native American arts and crafts. This necklace deviates from traditional designs, appearing to be crafted specifically for the curio trade and tourists. Size: 8.5" L x 6.5" W (21.6 cm x 16.5 cm); frame: 11" L x 9" W (27.9 cm x 22.9 cm)
