Tumpline - $450.00
This piece is a combination of design and technique from two different originals. Strap design is adapted from the "Guthman" moosehair embroidered hornstrap (apparently a cutdown tumpline). The tails are done with a diagonal warpface weave rather than an oblique weave. By using two colors of "warp" the spiral effect is created. This is taken from some tumplines in the Museé du Quai-Branly in France. Strap is approx. 2"x22" and the tails are 10'long with the last 3' split into two. Click on image to enlarge. SOLD
