Plains Indian Quill-work Hiigh Top Moccasins - Vintage & Beautiful!

Description

Presented today is this vintage Plains Indian Quill-work High Top Moccasins. They come from an estate of a dear, departed friend who was a respected lecturer, teacher and museum curator. She was part Cheyenne, and lectured and demonstrated extensively on Plains Indian cultures. Also, in the 1960's, she
traveled the northern plains on the Pow Wow circuit, participating in dances, either singly or with a dance troupe. i believe this pair of moccasins date from that time. The quillwork is in perfect condition. The soles show light wear. There's small spots of pine pitch, so they must have been danced on pine needles. They are each about 18 inches tall. i would say they are a woman's size 9 and a half, as i was able to slip into them pretty easily. Overall, they are in excellent condition, and actually can be safely worn.  Bid with confidence, for as you all know, if the winner is unsatisfied for ANY reason i will immediately return the full purchase price, including return shipping. This belt would look great in your beadwork collection. Many Thanks for your kind consideration, and as always Best Regards, Mary
