View Allexquisite 19th Century Iroquois Beadwork Cushion, Native American Craftsmanship
Located in Hamburg, DE
Immerse yourself in the rich cultural heritage of the Iroquois with this stunning 19th-century beadwork cushion, a remarkable example of Native American artistry. This exquisite piece showcases the intricate skill and dedication of Iroquois artisans, who meticulously hand-stitched countless tiny glass beads onto a silk foundation.
The cushion features a beautifully detailed depiction of a dove perched on a flowering branch, symbolizing peace and harmony. Each bead is expertly placed, creating a vibrant and lifelike representation that captures the essence of Iroquois beadwork. The delicate silk background, while showing signs of age with areas of porosity and brittleness, adds to the cushion’s historical authenticity and charm.
Despite some beads loosening around the edges, this cushion remains a captivating piece of art, reflecting the labor-intensive process and artistic talent of its creators. The minor imperfections only enhance its story, serving as a testament to its journey through time.
Ideal for collectors of Native American artifacts...
