This medicine shield has a bit of everything. The center is a medicine wheel made with real buffalo bone beads. It also has a pipe tomahawk or peace pipe with glass seed bead wraps, a dreamcatcher, two authentic hand made arrows, and a medicine bag.

This medicine shield has long fringes decorated with glass crow beads and/or brass beads and cones and is finished off with duck and goose feathers. The hoop is approximately 15 inches in diameter, overall length is about 32 inches.

Crossed arrows mean friendship. The medicine wheel represents the path of life, the four directions, the four colors, and the eternal fire. The circle represents unity.

It is said a dream catcher will filter your dreams, capturing the bad ones and the good ones will float down the feathers to the dreamer. Then the morning sun will melt the bad dreams away. The pictures shown are representative. Because this is a one-of-a-kind hand crafted item, each will vary slightly from the one pictured. The tomahawk blade and feathers used may vary. If you have a preference for bead colors, specify your choices in the comment field of your order form.
