Pouch
Catherine Elliott, Nessa Leibhammer, 2017 DDF research:
Beadwork pouch with strap (see 186/1972/11/2) used for storing snuff. A nice example. Note the use of larger and smaller beads, which is typical for South Sotho beadwork from the late 19th/early 20th century and the combination of pink, white and green beads found often in beadwork from the Drakensberg area. Good for display.
