Details


Here is a sweet turn of the century beaded boot made as a souvenir. The boot is very ornate with beads of several colors. Pretty pale pink or salmon front and pale green back.

 There is a little beaded rope for hanging and it has an opening inside the boot. Extremely nicely decorated. Made for the tourist trade by the Iroquois Indian.
Many were made at the turn of the 20th century when interest in Native American crafts became popular. Most made for the seamstress and the pocket held the needle packets or small sewing tools.

The boot is just over 7" tall without tie and 12" with it.

Please see pictures for condition details. Great display or addition to a collection.

Feel free to email with any questions prior to purchase. Thanks for looking.
