Nez Perce or Crow Bag, late 19th century / Ex Linda and Phillip Curry Collection

Mirror bags, as the name suggests, house mirrors which used by men to adorn themselves for seminal events and communal gatherings.

The Crow and Nez Perce are celebrated for having made some of the most elaborate surviving examples. This is especially true of examples from the late 19th century, when groups from the Plateau and TransMontaigne regions dressed up for parades and celebration days.

22.5” long; accompanied by a wall mount
