Iroquois Whimsies

Once discarded as collectible, Iroquois Whimsies are tourist trade items created in the late 18th century by the Mohawks near Montreal and the Tuscarora of Niagara Falls. Items include pincushions, purses, picture frames, needle cases and other ornate wall hangings exhibiting the raised beading technique.
