Dana West added a quilled green and red peace sign to the front of this small beaded buckskin pouch.
Before European traders introduced glass beads, porcupine quills were one of the main materials used to decorate clothing in North America. The tips are snipped off of the quills, usually 2 to 3 inches long, which are then dyed, today using aniline dyes.
Length of pouch with fringe 3 3/4", width 2 1/4"
