Featured in this lot is a North Dakota Mandan Hidatsda Indian "Satin Star Quilt", circa mid-to-late 1900's. This rug shows iconic Satin Star design with a Star of Bethlehem in the center featuring colors of cream, pink, green, and blue with sewn accents of floral vine decorations. The pattern of the star quilt is inspired by the Morning Star. Historically, star patterns were created with plant dyes and adorned buffalo hides and tipis. When missionaries arrived in the mid-to-late 1800's, they introduced textiles and sewing to Native American women and the star quilt was born. Mandan, self-name Numakiki, are North American Plains Indians who traditionally lived in semi-permanent villages along the Missouri River, in what is now North Dakota. They spoke a Siouan language and their oral traditions suggest that they once lived in eastern North America. The measurements of this star quilt are 79 1/2" x 92". Provenance: Collected at a powwow in New Town, ND, home of the three affiliated tribes, Hadassah, Arizona, and Mandan. 2017.
