This is a top-of-the-line medicine bag necklace by Linda Begay.
This spectacular artifact was masterfully crafted by hand out of genuine buckskin for naturally soft textures.
Beaded fringe hangs off the bottom in a lovely pattern and decorates the sides and front.
The opening is tied by a leather fringe.
The bead work is impressive with its symmetrical design.
The necklace is made of the same beaded colors and patterns as the bag.
The artist used vibrant seed beads for a dazzling look for each uniquely colored bag.
The front is embellished with a charm or fetish.
Although these medicine bags have a clasp to allow them to be worn around the neck, they are traditionally worn at the belt.
This white medicine bag is 2" wide and 3" long.
The necklace is 15" long. If you would like to know where this necklace will fall on your neckline, check out our Necklace Sizer.
