Description
Experts argue about collars of this type: Did a Great Lakes native artist make it, using as a model an English lady’s pelerine and exotic feathers obtained through trade? Or was the collar created by a European feather worker, perhaps after seeing the spectacular feather capes of native Hawaiian royals who visited England in 1824? There are arguments for both views—and for further research.
