The Indian Trading post has been a long
standing institution on many of the western reservations. Blue Sky,Red Earth Tribal Art carries on that long standing tradition only difference being
that this trading post is on the "net" and is owned by Native
Americans. By eliminating the middleman trader we bring you the best
prices for the items we carry. It is an immpossibility to list all
the different art, craft and jewelry items that we have in our
inventory, so if you are looking for something in particular just ask,
we might have it or can have it made for you. New to our listings
is a fine selection of traditional native drums, bone rasps and fine
flutes. The photos are being done now and will be uploaded to this
site as soon as possible.
The eagle is a very
powerful image amongst many Native American tribes. It is often
found portrayed in many artistic forms in various crafts. The eagle's
feathers are held sacred by many tribes and represent honors bestowed
upon the owner of the feathers. We honor that same spirit of the
eagle in many of the pieces you will find in our pages. The feathers
used in creating these offerings are legal for sale as they are
handpainted to imitate the representative birds.
The buffalo is another very influential force upon Native American arts and crafts. The mighty buffalo played a major part in the everyday life of the nomadic plains indians. Almost every part of the buffalo was used to provide, clothing, shelter, food, tools, weapons and utensils and much more. We carry many buffalo items ie. plain and painted robes, buffalo coats, plain and painted skulls, knives made from rib bones, shields and numerous other items.
