The piece is comprised of Indian tanned hide and tanned hide covered in period correct early 1900 glass trade seed beads in a geometric pattern. The beadwork covers the front panel and entire outside fancy edge in colors of chalk white, greasy yellow, semi-transparent Cheyenne pink, sky padre light blue, blue, and semi-transparent green. The bag is thread sewn. The piece is a smaller or miniature example of the larger belt flat pouches seen from the Nez Perce Indians. Miniature beadwork with such an early antique age such as this is immensely rare. The bag shows nice soft hide and little bead loss.

Along with being an avid collector, Bruce was also the sole owner of Sundog Fine Art Gallery in Bozeman, which was both part museum and gallery, this piece is directly from the collection.
