Nice beadwork and leather looks brain tanned.More than likely native made but i don't think it is very old. I would love to find one that nice!

I agree with Indian Steve - Knife sheath, well made, not old.

The motif of the beadwork and the method of attaching the beads (a technique known as “lazy stitch” are both traditional to the Plains Indians, but the construction of the sheath, especially the laced seams and the two belt slits are unlike any authentic sheath I have seen during many years of study.

My guess is it was made on one of the reservations here in the u.s.a. in the 50's or 60's thanks for posting.
