These are some pretty fascinating pieces coming of for auction in May.
These are all South Dakota pieces. These are quite sizable according to the tags. And there is a sizable amount of plate chalcedony knives under that horse.

Would you call these mosaics? Or a collage? Here's one a friend made from some of my broken Kaolin Cahokia points. Many were broken in half and he glued them back together.

I don’t know what would be the most accurate description, but your piece is awesome.

Poor pic of one I helped put together of a friends finds.
I have thought about making one from the thumbies Ive found, maybe when I cant get around too good.

That auction looks interesting!!!

looks like a few interesting items. But id bet it has been severely cherry picked.
no where near the amount of quality pieces the last couple auctions offered.
i Might check it out anyway.

I would call it ( rider and pony in repose)...Stylized artifact art...it’s a beauty.

I’d call it “The End of the Trail - in Artifacts”

Tribute to James Earle Fraser (who also is the artist that gave us the Buffalo Nickle.
