Sala gamiilga gaax ganou2641/1

"The Raven Dances with Frogs" robe. Hand-woven chilkat style child's robe, shaped like a horizontal rectangle on three sides, with the lower edge curving downward to the centre. Long warp fringes of brown and white yarn along the lower edge tapered to be the longest at the centre, with supplementary fringes of white yarn. Main panel is composed of complex formline design in black, white, yellow, and turquoise, outlined in narrow black and white braids, a wide surround of yellow, another band of braids, and an outer surround in black. Double band of braids of brown and white yarn at each side, ending in four bands of wrapped yarn, two black alternating with two yellow. The main panel has a rectangular human-like face at the centre front, above which are two yellow eye forms containing frog faces. Below the rectangular form are two inverted eye forms, beside which are feet with claws. Above these on each side are two more eye forms in yellow. At the midpoint of each side edge is a rectangular profile human-like face looking inwards towards the centre. Throughout the robe the braid outlining is raised from the finely-woven surface, making it three-dimensional. Only the major designs show on the reverse, not the braids.
