This is an attractive large, 32 x 14 Paiute/Shoshone style cradleboard from Mono County, made for a girl. Although it was made in more recent times, the style is taken from a craft that is hundreds of years old. Covered in canvas-like cloth, with decorative burgundy, red, blue, yellow, and white seed bead work, and leather thong lacing. The shade hood is brightly decorated with beaded loops and burgundy colored yarn. There is no apparent damage to this board. It’s a beautiful example of the crafter’s art.Sanderson Yosemite Collection HKA#63168
