This lot gives you the chance to bid on a Sioux Native American Indian cradleboard. The papoose is based on a piece of wood, and wrapped in tanned hide. The effigy is set apart by the doll placed into the papoose, showing a full painted face. Above the doll, there is a traditional geometric pattern, made with beautiful chalk white, Cheyenne pink, blood red, soft green, cobalt blue, and corn yellow trade seed bead work. The papoose is in good condition overall. The piece measures 7 1/4" tall, 3 3/8" wide, and 1" thick.
