This is an exceptional Sioux Native American Indian polychrome painted parfleche rawhide trunk from circa 1890. The piece has an excellent meticulously painted geometric design in all mineral polychrome paints (black, blue, and violet). The piece is painted on all three sides and the top and is sinew or hide sewn. The bag shows very good condition with only a slight loss to the finish on a half dollar sized spot along the top. Very rare and important early piece. Measures "H x "D x "W.
