The lot features a set of hide beaded moccasins from the Northern Plains Native American Indians of the mid-20th Century. The set shows a hide construction with parfleche rawhide hard soles and the tops being adorned with glass trade seed beads in a linear geometric pattern. The set shows a nice large size and has beadwork in medium blue, chalk white, black, and red with concho metal studs. The set shows hide ties with a medium ankle. The hard soles show a foot worn patina. Overall the set is in good condition with a slight split at the toe of the right piece, but little to no bead loss. Provenance: From one of the most prominent American Indian Collections in Billings, Montana where the set was found to be an authentic example. Each moccasin measures overall 11.5”L soles by 4.5”W by 4”H ankle.
