Featured in this lot is this pair of circa 1900-1950 Native American Northern Plains beaded miniature moccasins. These are from the Crow or Blackfeet tribe. The pair of moccasins show good tight beadwork with colored beads of red, white, blue, green and light pink. The bottoms of the moccasins are tanned buckskin while the top is trade cloth canvas. The insides are stuffed with cotton to preserve the shape of the moccasins. The moccasins were most likely used for a doll at the time. They are in good condition for their vintage age and show no signs of obvious damage.. They measure 2 1/8" L x 1" W.
