Description
These striking leggings crafted from brain-tanned hide exemplify a modern interpretation of traditional Sioux artistry. Each legging features an array of meticulously applied red pigment bars arranged in parallel columns, possibly suggesting accounting or ceremonial design. The natural fringe along the outer seams adds a tactile element typical of hide garments. While contemporary in execution, these leggings draw upon the rich heritage and aesthetic principles of the Sioux people, making them a significant addition for collectors interested in modern Native American regalia or cultural art. Very nice condition. Dimensions each: 16” wide x 34” long. See photos.
