Crow style Macaw Feather Fan made by George Knowlden (Two Hawks). The feathers are wrapped in brain-tanned leather, decorated with thread and ermine fur. The handle is beaded with seed beads in the peyote stitch. These fans are meant to be carried at the junction of the handle, so the feathers can be flaired as desired.

I like that the background matches the image. It appears the smaller versions have either been oversharpen or are suffering from th resize.
I didnt think macaws were native to america, so interesting that they would appear in a native american artifact
Woops - I am going to guess that this one will be DQ'd for using artwork in the border itself. Too bad, because even with a black border, this would have done quite well I think. I'll give it an 8 in case it survives. Good luck. :)
