The lot features a set of hide pants from a Santee Sioux Native American Indian man with floral beadwork dating to early-to-mid-1900’s. The pants feature an Indian tanned hide construction with traditional cut top button fly and belt loops said to be in a size 39 men’s (39-inches)(this is an approximation, no return will be given on the size of the pants). The pants show the beadwork down the fronts of both legs totaling eight large floral beaded medallions with colors of Cheyenne pink, dark red, orange, cobalt, blue, greens and more. The set is in good overall condition and from a large American Indian collection in Northwestern Montana outside Glacier National Park. The pants measure 43.5”L by 10.5”W.
