Plateau Beaded Cradle BoardThis is a dynamic classic Nez Perce cradle from Eastern Washington. The design on the backboard is unusual with a wide pink and deep blue framing panel around the white floral center section. It really makes the floral design "pop" , particularly with the sparkle from all the tiny cut beads used on the cradle. The hood is green wool with floral beadwork on it. This is a great piece from the collection of Steve Barrett. L. 41"; W. 15 " c. 1900 #8903
