Native American Headdresses / Plains Indian Headdress / Sioux




NATIVE AMERICAN HEADDRESS


Although it does have some age, this headdress is based on the one presented to Calvin Coolidge in 1927 in the Black Hills of South Dakota by Sitting Bull's nephew. The original is housed at the Calvin Coolidge library. There is a tremendous amount of beadwork. The split trailer is edge beaded with a total of 4 beaded motifs on each side.













This headdress is slightly different to headdresses that we make as they are usually older than this one and we antique them to look old.
