content: Pair of beaded hide leggings of undetermined origin, possibly a Native American group of the Plains region. The leggings are darkly tanned and soft. At the bottom of each legging is six bands of bead decoration running around the legging. At the back there are an additional six bands of beads running vertically up the edge where the leggings are fastened. In both orientations, five bands are joined to create a regular geometric pattern of red, green, pink, blue, and gold beads on a white beaded field. The sixth band is white with blue rectangles in the horizontal and white with alternating hollow red and blue rectangles in the vertical orientation.
