Warrior Chest Plate

Details

Inspired in a dream and by traditional Native American regalia, this wall hanging is a hand-crafted artwork created to honor the beautiful way of life and culture of Native Americans.

Composed as a hair pipe breastplate, it features alternating black and natural bone-toned tubular beads as the basic structure. In the center is an abalone shell medallion secured above a hand-crafted leather medicine wheel symbolizing the four sacred directions. Edged with natural feathers, animal fur, turquoise, red and metallic beads, and fringed rust color leather, this highly textured artwork includes a custom made rustic wood wall mount for secure display.
