Pair of men’s moose hide mittens, tied together with a braided wool cord. Mittens are long, with beaver fur edging at cuff and wrist. A panel between the two is made of black felt, embroidered on top surface with bright flowers and vines in red and light blue, with a pink bow. Flowers and foliage in a slightly different pattern have been applied to each hand on the hide, in purple, dark blue and red. The woolen string is made of braided white, blue, green and red strands of wool, with large pompoms. It is attached to each mitten on the inner side at top.
