An invoice from Alan Edison in 1995 indicates this stunning cradle was passed down thru a family at Pine Ridge. The father left the reservation and attended college and later became an electrical engineer and then was passed down to his son in the father’s will. One of the most stunning pieces of beadwork to have ever passed thru my hands!
