Shield Number Three

Description: This convex shield design is typically made of buffalo hump rawhide. The design of a shell disk with horsehair tassels, coup stripes with a turtle and medicine symbol painted on it was obtained in the Plains Indian Warrior’s vision quest. It is decorated with four eagle wing feathers and one trade cloth tassel, decorated with fringe and brass tacks hanging on the bottom. A long felt strip wraps the top and one side as well as hanging down below the shield.
