This textile strip is composed of glass seed beads worked in a flat-woven or loom-woven technique. The design consists of a repeating pattern of five-petaled floral motifs against a white beaded ground. The flowers alternate between dark red with pink centers and forest green with light green centers. A continuous geometric zigzag border in green and red frames the length of the piece. The strip is a decorative component likely intended for use as a sash, belt, or apparel inlay. Similar patterns and construction techniques are found in both North American Indigenous beadwork and Eastern European folk traditions from the early to mid-20th century.
