Huge 19th Century masterfully beaded Northern Plains Indian knife sheath which focuses on three thunderbird symbols, that measures 3 1/2"x 12". A superb example of North American Indian's Object of Art. The Thunderbird symbol, spiritual in nature, represents the great eagle, which culminates the powers of the Creator, Destroyer, and the Controller of Nature. With its panoramic veiw, the Thunderbird could see all, and veiw the world from on high. It depicted wisdom from which prophesy and calculated power was sourced from. As with the eagle feather headdress, this sheath must have been worn by a powerful warrior, or medicine man. It is in beautiful condition, comprised of early beads, and a pleasingly patinaed back. Includes a large period knife.

7. New Frontier Enterprises warrants the accuracy of the catalog descriptions originated by Scott Tarbell. New Frontier Enterprises does not guarantee or warrant the condition, rarity, provenance or historical relevance of any catalog item, since such statements are only qualified statements of opinion and thus are speculative in nature. Legitimate restoration, meaning items restored to their original state, will be sold as original.

If, for any dispute or claim to which this paragraph applies, any party commences an action without first attesting to resolve the matter through Mediation, or refuses to mediate after a request has been made, then that party shall not be entitled to recover attorney’s fees, even if they would otherwise be available to this party in any such action. Buyer and New Frontier Enterprises agree that any dispute or claim in law or equity arising between them out of this auction or any resulting transaction, which is not settled through Mediation, shall be decided by a neutral binding Arbitration before the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service.
