The headdress would not have been worn on a daily basis. It is made of beaded leather and wrapped feathers. The doll's body is made of leather. Note that there is no face. This is because in the early days, dolls did not have faces stitched on them to encourage them to use their imaginations. Based on the condition of the doll, it is estimated that it was made during the early 1900’s. |
