ANTIQUE BEADED/HAND SEWN NATIVE AMERICAN BAG/PURSE.BLUE

FOR AUCTION IS THIS VERY OLD BEADED BAG/PURSE/POUCH.  IT IS MADE OF ALL HAND SEWN TINY BLUE BEADS WITH TINY GOLD BEAD ACCENT THROUGHOUT. IT IS A LITTLE LESS THAN 6"X6" AND AS CAN BE SEEN FROM THE PHOTO, IT IS MISSING IT'S STRAPE AND IS ROUGH EDGED AT THE TOP ( I DON'T THINK IT IS LIKELY TO EVER HAVE BEEN ON A FRAME BUT ITS POSSIBLE).

I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A NATIVE AMERICAN ITEM.  ALTHOUGH THIS WAS NOT SOLD TO ME AS SUCH, IT WAS AMONG  NATIVE AMERICAN ITEMS AND IS VERY SIMILIAR IN STYLE AND TECHNIQUE TO A BAG IN MY OWN COLLECTION KNOWN TO BE OF NATIVE AMERICAN ORIGIN.

IT HAS A VERY TINY BIT OF DAMAGE NEAR THE SEAM ON ONE SIDE AND ON THE OTHER HAS A FEW BEADS MISSING IN ONE SPOT. ON THE INSIDE, ONE CAN SEE HOW THE BEADS HAVE BEEN SEWN INTO TINY MESH.VERY BEAUTIFUL.
