About the Item

A striking 20th-century Native American Plains Indian roach headdress, also known as a hair ornament, traditionally worn during dances and ceremonies. This impressive piece is handcrafted from porcupine hair, a material commonly used in traditional roaches for its stiffness and ability to hold shape. The roach measures approximately 15 x 15 inches without the stand and reaches 21 inches in height when displayed on the included custom stand. Rich in cultural significance and bold visual presence, this authentic example of Plains Indian regalia makes a compelling addition to any collection of Native American art, ethnographic artifacts, or historical Americana.
