Beaded sash depicting three faces and animals (lizards and birds) decorated with cowrie shells measuring 44" in length. There appears to be four cowries missing from the trim but otherwise this piece is in very fine condition. From the carefully curated collection of a Pan Am flight attendant, in service between the years of 1954 and 1984. Her many travels took her through Central America, Europe, Africa, Asia and the South Pacific.
