This piece is an unstuffed and later-framed beaded pin cushion panel, attributed to Iroquois (Haudenosaunee) beadwork, based on materials, construction, and design motifs consistent with late 19th to early 20th century Iroquois souvenir-era work. Originally created as a functional pin cushion or small sewn domestic object, the beadwork was later unstuffed and mounted as framed wall art—a common mid-20th-century practice used to preserve and display Native beadwork for decorative and collecting purposes. . These characteristics align closely with documented Iroquois beadwork traditions from the Northeastern United States. "The Iroquois pincushion top was created on a Mohawk reserve near Montreal in around 1880." • Culture: Attributed Iroquois (Haudenosaunee) • Type: Beaded pin cushion panel (unstuffed, framed) • Materials: Glass seed beads, velvet, thread • Design: Floral / foliate motif with scalloped edging • Period: Likely late 19th – early 20th century • Presentation: Gold-tone frame with hanging wire 16.5x13.5" Measurements (Approximate – please confirm) • Frame width: 11" • Frame height: 9.5" • Depth: .5" (not stuffed) Condition & Transparency Good antique condition consistent with age. • Beadwork largely intact with minor age-related wear • No significant bead loss observed • Velvet ground shows expected aging • Frame shows light patina and wear • Backing paper exhibits normal age-related wear No modern repairs noted.
