Full Beaded Vest
Vintage, museum quality, fully beaded vest by an unknown artist and tribal affiliation IF ANY. I believe this to be from the 70's? from the calico print lining. It measures 24" from shoulder to the bottom before the 4" fringes. The width is 20" across, and the ties can be adjusted to open more.
It is in very good condition, but I did find two small areas with bead loss - maybe 15 beads (can be repaired). The leather appears to be brain tanned, but I am not sure. The retail tag says $6000, and I did see one by this same artist a few years back in a shop in Las Vegas for $6500.
