    Description

    From a fantastic collection of Native American art and artifacts, I have for your consideration, a very special Doll.  I believe this doll is from the early to mid-19th Century and features real hair, incredible beadwork, fine rawhide fringe and it's very own necklace.  Incredible detail, right down to berry-stained cheeks and a tiny stitched nose!  Please see close-up pictures as they are an important part of this description.  Approx. 12 1/2" long, the body appears to be made of muslin, with seed-bead on rawhide detailed shirt and long 'legging'-like
    moccasins
    .  Breechcloth is made of old green wool material, breast plate 'necklace' looks to be made of long beads.  One of the beads is damaged, please see photos.  I am uncertain from which tribe this fine doll came from... I'm thinking Plains Indian because of the blue, green and white beadwork.  I am happy to answer any questions you might have and send additional pictures.  Serious offers only please!  This is a museum quality piece of Native American Art.  You will not be disappointed!!! Thank you for looking and please see my other listings for more items from this collection coming soon!
