This unusual Native American beaded scent bottle features a turned wooden body fitted with an original glass liner and covered in finely worked glass seed beads in geometric yellow and transparent amber designs. The bottle measures approximately 3 inches in height and retains its original glass insert with a closed bottom. The stopper is no longer present, which is common for examples of this type.
The geometric beadwork and construction are consistent with Plains Indian beadwork of the late 19th to early 20th century. While the exact tribal attribution cannot be confirmed, the piece displays the quality and craftsmanship sought by collectors of Native American beadwork and sewing or personal accessories.
Dimensions: 3 in. high
Condition: Good antique condition with minor bead loss and wear consistent with age. Original glass liner intact; stopper absent.
