Included for your consideration in this lot is a pair of Iroquois Native American Indian moccasins. The Moccasins are constructed of tanned leather hide, with black trade cloth adorning the instep and heel. Additionally, the border of the heel is accented with red trade cloth. The trade cloth portions of the moccasins are decorated with intricate trade seed beadwork, including chalk white, semi-transparent clear, robin egg blue, and transparent green, red, and orange. The early moccasins originate from late first quarter, to mid 1900's, and show fair condition overall - there is little bead loss, although the trade cloth portions show separation and deterioration indicative of age. Each moccasin measures 10 1/8" long from heel to toe, 4 1/2" wide, and 3" tall.
