around boot moccasins in soft tanned white deer hide with bead work in orange turquoise and blue

storage - never the less a spectacular example to add to the collection. They measure 10" long x 12 ½"
high, sinew sewn.

1903 Glass Vase American Indian Portrait
Indian Portrait Vase entitled Chief Red Cloud Portrait Vase. Nice glass vase with a portrait I believe of
Chief Red Cloud - I'm not 100% sure but that is my best guess. Nice transfer portrait and on the side of
the portrait written on the vase is Salisbury Beach 1903 - could quite possible be also 1908. Obviously
a high end souvenir piece from that time period - I think Salisbury Beach is in New York - but I'm not
quite sure of that either. The vase measures 7 3/8"h and the diameter of the base is 4".
