<p>[QUOTE="Dawnno, post: 581488, member: 10171"]Tube beads in loom work is very unusual imo too. Tube beads on the other hand for hand made articles in the 1st Q of the 20th C is however not unusual. What throws me more are the colors. The red and black is very 'un' N.A. like and the bead colors in the chevrons and diamonds appear to be more mid 20th C to me. The designs don't strike me as much other than geometric, with the 'illusion' of being N.A. by chance. That's my two cents.
