Beaded wool bandolier bag
|
| Description | Shoulder bag consists of a single piece of red wool folded into an unlined envelope pouch. The lower front has a loom-woven geometric beadwork panel with twenty beaded tabs suspended from the bottom edge. The design employs pink, blue, red, yellow and green glass seed beads on a white bead ground with a tan thread warp. The beaded tabs terminate in alternate red and blue wool yarn tassels. Blue ribbon edges the panel top. The pouch top is edged with ribbonwork in dark blue and greenish brown. The strap consists of two parts that have not been joined; each is red wool backed with printed tan cloth and faced with a strip of wide loom-woven geometric beadwork. Each strap has five beaded woven tabs that terminate in either yellow or red wool tassels. Black ribbon binds most of the pouch and strap edges. The bag was probably collected by Oscar E. Garrison [1825-1886] of Crow Wing County, Minnesota, who had served as a northern ranger during the 1862 U.S.-Dakota War. |
