Description

Broad band of silver or German silver, with two bands of etched cross hatching. Over the metal armlet is a quilled leather armlet, mostly red in colour, and with pendent bunch of quilled thongs and old silk ribbons. The two parts of one armlet are held together by a narrow thong strung with a few large beads.
