This is an original and scarce Plains Native American Indian hand carved burl wood dance rattle dating to the early to mid-1900’s. The rattle is crafted from a solid piece of burl wood with exceptional wood grain and shows hot file burnish accents on the handle. The back of the rattle features a wonderful exquisite solid brass trade tack design with the front side showing a very unique hand etched solid brass plaque with brass trade studs or tacks framing the outside and four iron nails having four brass discs. When the rattle is moved the disc clank against each other making a wonderful sound. The piece shows very fine quality and excellent construction with good condition. It measures 2.25" x 8.75".
