A pair of Blackfoot Native American infant or doll-sized moccasins constructed from soft-tanned buckskin with separate hand-stitched hide soles. The vamps are ornamented with lane-stitched glass seed beadwork in a rectangular tab design. The pattern consists of a translucent red field containing two central cobalt blue geometric motifs, all enclosed within an opaque white border. An additional row of translucent teal beads is stitched around the base of the ankle. The items retain sections of the original hide laces. The underside of one moccasin is marked with the handwritten numerals 25 in black ink. A modern steel safety pin connects the pair at the heel.
