Pair of Moccasins Item Number: 11.694.9035a-b from the Brooklyn Museum
Description
Pair of moccasins with totally beaded blue and red thunderbird designs. According to Sean Standing Bear, (Osage) 10/20/2000, a non-Osage person might have made these because the birds are positioned upside down. Osage design dictates indicate the birds would point skywards.
