Early Double Layered Pueblo Rawhide Shield

$4,450.00 $0.00
A 19th-century Native American Pueblo layered shield was a sophisticated item of spiritual and physical protection, typically constructed from multiple layers of toughened buffalo hide, designed to be flexible yet capable of deflecting arrows and, in some cases, lead balls. Unlike the larger, lighter shields of neighboring Plains tribes, Pueblo shields were often slightly smaller, heavily reinforced, and held via a neck strap and handle system.
  • Construction: Comprised of two or more layers of buffalo rawhide, often shrunk over a fire to increase density, with the space between layers and Sinew Sewn
These shields were often repainted or updated, with designs and "medicine" passing from one owner to another, making them living items of cultural preservation

 Size 16.1/2" Diameter

Circa: 19th Century
