Bag, "Strike-A-Light," Bead and Quillwork, Vintage, ‘80s, 1281

HOW PRECIOUS IS THIS POUCH? 

This beaded “strike-a-light” pouch is a fun little vintage find. It begins with a light colored buckskin and embellished with a geometric design of quills colored gray, yellow, and red in the center of the pouch. Along the bottom of the pouch is a row of tin cones that make a magic sound. The pouch sides are detailed with white glass beads and finished with a clasped flap closing. A wonderful piece that has true Native American history.
