Wooden Beaded Native American Breastplate

Description

This wooden beaded Native American style breastplate is inspired by real breastplates that Native Americans used to wear in battle way, way back in the day. They’d usually make their own armor with decorative beads and hair and leather and color it in various ways that suited them or their tribe. While we would never say that this is exactly like the ones they wore, it is definitely inspired by it and we think it will add some authenticity to any American Indian costume.

The faux leather fringe dangles around the sides of the beads, which make colorful patterns using beige, red, and dark brown beads. The neck string is 18″ long to give you a lot of room to move it around the way you like it.
