Measures 4 ¼ High, custom tabletop display stand is included \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the 1890s, an interesting new piece of ceremonial regalia began to make its appearance among Kwakwaka'wakw ritualists. Certain styles of traditional headgear predate this type and probably influenced its development. These include the elaborate kinds of finely worked cedar-bark headrings that were made in this period and earlier, as well as elaborately carved, painted, and pieced-together wooden constructions that featured a range of individual family crest images in dramatic and flamboyant styles. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis finely beaded, red trade-cloth example is composed with the design of a Sisiutl, the double-headed serpent that appears in many different forms and image styles in the Kwakwaka'wakw ceremonial tradition. The Sisiutl design was often associated with warriors and warrior imagery. Its flesh was impenetrable, it could cause instant death with a glance, and those who looked upon it were said to be turned to stone. The Sisiutl often appears on headpieces, wooden belts and dance paraphernalia, feast dishes, totem poles, and canoe designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe double-headed serpent is often shown as it appears here, with a central face and two opposing profile bodies and heads, suggesting a three-headed creature. On totem poles, the central head is often at the bottom of the image, with each profile body and head extending up the pole on either side, suggesting that the two profile sides are the split halves of a single, second body and head. In images like the one on the subject work, the split halves of the double-headed serpent are opened out into the two profile sides that here wrap around the wearer’s head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis style of headpiece appears not to have continued in production into much of the twentieth century, as few examples seem to have survived. Photographs from the 1950s and 60s, the first decades of the potlatch revival period, don’t include headpieces of this kind, suggesting that the heyday of this style of headgear spanned the last decades of the nineteenth century and perhaps the earliest years of the twentieth. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e- Steven Clay Brown\n\u003cbr\u003eformer curator of Native American art at the Seattle Art Museum who has authored several books on Northwest Coast art, as well as articles and essays for many other publications.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kwakwaka'wakw (Kwakiutl)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42026138927186,"sku":"16421","price":5500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0567\/8678\/0242\/files\/16421_w.jpg?v=1784791513"},{"product_id":"potawatomi-hide-moccasins-with-trade-beads-and-cloth-circa-1880-native-american-art-10124","title":"Hide Moccasins with Trade Beads and Cloth, circa 1880","description":"\u003cp\u003e19th century, circa 1880 Potawatomi (Northeast Woodlands Native American) moccasins, Native tanned hide, the large cuffs have edge beading with trade beads and are adorned with a silky trade cloth in white, purple, red, green and yellow.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Potawatomi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42026138992722,"sku":"10124","price":3500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0567\/8678\/0242\/files\/10124_w.jpg?v=1784791513"},{"product_id":"baleen-box-with-incised-maritime-scene-circa-1900-native-american-art-14228","title":"Baleen Box with Incised Maritime Scene, circa 1900","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhale baleen in the form of an oval box with incised maritime scene, circa 1900.

The tribes from this region include Kalispel, Flathead, Kutenai, Palus, Coeur D'Alene and Nez Perce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eParfleches are rawhide containers which were fundamental to the Plains way of life. Functioning essentially as protective travelling suitcases, they enabled the nomadic tribes to effectively pursue buffalo herds and migrate between seasonal camps. So critical were they to a nomadic existence that over 40 tribes are known to have historically produced parfleches. Collectively, these tribes inhabited an area which encompassed the entirety of the Plains, as well as the parts of the Southwest, the Transmontane and Western Plateau regions. Parfleches were, out of necessity, robust and versatile objects. They were designed to carry and protect within them anything from medicinal bundles to seasonal clothing or food. In fact, it was because of the containers’ robusticity and variety that parfleches earned their name in the Anglo world. Derived from parer (to parry or turn aside) and fleche (arrow), the word parfleche was coined by 17th century French Canadian voyageurs and used to describe indigenous objects made from rawhide. Despite their common utilitarian function, parfleches served as one of the major mediums through which Plains Indian tribes could develop their long-standing tradition of painting. In fact, it is in large part due to the parfleche that tribal style emerged. Even though parfleche painting developed simultaneously with beading and weaving, painting as an artistic tradition held particular importance in tribal culture. Believed to have evolved from tattooing, it had always been used as a conduit through which tribal and individual identity could be expressed. As such, many tribeswomen were deeply committed, some even religiously, to decorating their parfleche either with incised or painted motifs that were significant to them and\/or the tribe. For some tribes, such as the Cheyenne, the decorative processes which surrounded parfleche production were sacred. For others, it seems that their parfleche designs shared an interesting artistic dialogue with their beadwork, indicating a more casual exchange of design motifs. This particular relationship can be seen in Crow parfleche\/beadwork motifs. Nevertheless, each tribe contributed a unique element to parfleche design. The painted and carved motifs we see today vividly demonstrate just how highly evolved the Plains artisans’ sense of color palette and spatial composition was. In recent decades, this appreciation for parfleche painted designs has inspired many modern artists.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Plateau","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42026139549778,"sku":"20372","price":5760.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0567\/8678\/0242\/files\/20372_w.jpg?v=1784791517"},{"product_id":"plateau-beaded-hide-pouch-circa-1900-native-american-art-20416","title":"Beaded Hide Pouch, circa 1900","description":"\u003cp\u003eVintage antique Plateau (Native American Indian) Pouch\/Bag.
