Full scale implies that the item has been created at a scale
that is thought to reflect the size of the original.The intent is to produce a two dimensional
representation of the original design as it may have appeared when it was created
i.e., there is no attempt to age the look of the item.This work is intended to be used as a wall
hanging; it is not three dimensional in that the back matches the front, as was
the case with most ceremonial shirts.All of these items use natural materials as the major components.The hides are non-commercial deer hide, horse
hair or human hair is used as interpreted by the original.Shells and other ornamental items are used
when available.All bead work is done by
the artist and the patterns, colors, are faithful to the original design.
