EXCEPTIONAL ANTIQUE NATIVE AMERICAN INDIAN IROQUOIS BEADWORK BEADED PEAKED HAT
I will be selling a good number of interesting antiques this week (possibly adding pieces on Friday 23rd) including Tribal art, Chinese, Japanese, Indian and European antiques. PLEASE NOTE: This sale is in GB Pounds Sterling.
This is an exceptional antique 19th Century Iroquois beaded peaked hat. It is absolutely covered in beads of different sizes and colours and I count at least eleven or twelve different types of bead but there may be more with the different size as well. I will take and attach a photo of the inside of the hat because it is there that you really see the labour involved in making this. It really is phenomenal and worthy of a museum. I am selling it at a low starting price and with .
It is my policy not to end standard sales early with a \'buy it now\' and at the end of an sale I will not make second chance offers. Please read down the entire listing for Dimensions, Condition, Postage & Payment Details - most of the information you will need is here on this page but please get in touch if you don\'t find what you are looking for. Condition & DimensionsVery good overall condition. Some missing beads here and there but really good overall considering the age and fragile nature of the hat.
It is quite a tricky thing to measure but it has a diameter of approximately 7.5\" / 19cms across the opening.

Postage & PackingFor your peace of mind and mine items will be sent fully insured. I will be posting from TUESDAY 3rd February so please make payment as early as possible, ideally within 3 working days. PLEASE be a little patient with the post - I will get them posted asap but I work on my own, have a large amount to post and I do pack carefully. I also post in the order that things are paid for.
Any delays by the postal services either at my end or abroad are rarely my fault and please take into account that your item will be arriving during the very busy Christmas period. I always post out at the latest 3 working days after receiving cleared payment but sometimes an item is slowed up by a backlog of post or delayed whilst being processed through customs. To give you an idea it generally takes about 3-7 working days within Europe and 9 - 14 working days to the U.S. / rest of the world. If speed is of the essence then I can use a courier (DHL / FEDEX etc.) but prices for couriers start at around £30 / £40GBP for the very smallest object and VERY quickly escalate depending on size, weight and destination. Please note also that there was a considerable hike in postage prices by the Royal Mail last year. I add on very little, often not enough to cover the packaging materials, so the price I quote really is as fair as possible.
