Black Rock Galleries is pleased to present this lifetime collection of Native American artifacts, jewelry, handicrafts, and more. This collection hails from the estate of an “old world” Bronx naturalist whose passion with the culture and plight of Native Americans since boyhood, strongly influenced this gentleman’s studies, outdoorsman and huntsman activities, and hobbies. As a regular visitor and participant of Native American powwows, this gentleman befriended many tribal artisans and craftsmen who either gifted or sold many of the pieces in this collection to him.
Some highlights in this collection include:
— a Native Sioux tribal outfit worn by the consignor during a peace pipe ceremony with Geronimo’s grandson
— a variety of custom designed turquoise jewelry pieces
— antique squash blossoms
If you are a collector of authentic Native American artifacts and handicrafts, an enthusiast of history, or someone simply looking for truly unique pieces to round out your design aesthetic, this is the ideal collection for you to bid upon. Happy bidding!
