This "Match Container" is a small, intricately beaded, and fringed piece of Native American craft. It's a small, rectangular piece of leather decorated in a geometric and floral style with white, green, and brown beads. The piece is framed with a green beaded border and features long green beaded fringes on the bottom. The piece was likely used to carry matches, and is a beautiful example of Haudenosaunee beadwork. The piece is currently held by the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
