|
Note: Visual works composed of decorative arrangements of quills, usually porcupine quills and sometimes with bird feathers, on a leather or cloth support that is often an article of clothing. The works developed among Native North Americans. The term is also used to refer to such works produced by other cultures, including those of similar appearance but created by rolling or curling narrow strips of paper and affixing them to a surface to create decorative designs. |
