These knee- high moccasins have a turned over flap on the top that is longer in back than front and is fringed. A separate band of hide is trimmed with beadwork and sewn down the front of the leg, overlapping the base of the foot. Another band of beadwork runs around the bottom of legging where it joins.

This bag has some cotton fiber in it. Reviewed by Winnebago weaver Martha Gradolf, 5/3/05,

First number was X956.2. This feather box is made from one piece of wood. There is a rectangular hole in one end of the box bottom. The opposite end is broken. Inside in pencil there is what appears to be written name F.L...Something. The top has a nine point star engraved on it. It is tied when closed with leather thing tied around it. The bottom has remnants of blue paint which is an Osage practice according to Sean Standing Bear, 10/20/2000.

Possibly not Osage made but Cheyenne or Arapaho woman's small boot moccasins with tall leggings. The use of black beads is more Cheyenne. Nicely done beadwork is on the vamp and partway up the leggings in white, yellow, pink and blue.

Seven dice in total: 5 round bone pieces and 2 falcon-shaped bone pieces. They are pictured in "Objects of Myth and Memory." Each die has a component of 11.694.9000.1a-g painted on it, e.g. 11.694.9000.1a.

This work bag has different geometric designs on each side-the bag is the smaller one in front. in the photo.
