Antique 1800s handmade Elmwood Bark Rattle that was used by some of the Eastern Woodland tribes such as the Iroquois, Cree or Ojibwa Indians and medicine men from these tribes. The rattle is in solid condition with a great patina and a great sound......
Some Museums won't even show this particular type of rattle and I believe it's because of religious reasons but it is listed in the National Museum of the American Indians in Washington but with no photographs...
Rare to find in any condition and guaranteed authentic......
