North American beaded moccasins, early 20th century - Lot 129
North American beaded moccasins, early 20th century A pair of Native American moccasins made of soft, light-colored leather, with a lace-up closure. The upper is decorated with geometric patterns made of small green, white, black, and yellow glass beads, evoking stylized turtle figures. A beaded border runs around the front of the foot. The leather soles show significant wear, indicating long-term use. The work was likely produced in a community on the Plains or in the Great Lakes region; the precise attribution remains to be confirmed.
