Strike-a-Lite Periwinkle

Add this fully beaded Periwinkle Strike-a-Lite bag to your collection. Crafted with a saddle-colored leather strap, the artist hand-stitched a geometric beadwork design across the front. They used brain-tanned deerskin lacing for the neck strap and accented it with brass beads. Tin cone drops, paired with brain-tanned leather lacing, add movement and traditional flair.
For the beadwork, the artist employed a lazy stitch technique using 11/0 seed beads. A background of periwinkle seed beads sets the stage for a striking pattern composed of transparent yellow, transparent red, white, and red seed beads. To complete the piece, they added 20 tin cone drops along the bottom edge.
The bag measures 3″ wide and 5.5″ long, including the tin cones.

Though practical, the bag often displayed tribal craftsmanship and symbolic designs. It offers insight into regional styles, materials, and daily life. For collectors, it blends utility with artistry.
