Osage woman's fingerwoven yarn sash with beadwork / Unknown

Essay/Description

Fingerwoven wool sash in bright pink, green, and yellow with white beading in a purple border with long yarn fringe.

This sash is unfinished and it may have been left that way purposefully. The beads used to create the design are on a thread instead of on the wool.
