Love the beadwork!
I just finished a rifle that needs a case, probably be my next project.

I love it, very tasteful! I'd want to own it even if I didn't own a rifle, just to admire.

Dear choctaw brave, there are no beads involved.
The decoration on the cover is made by quills of a porqupine.stained quills sewed one by one to the hide.a old native craft.will be coming availible for sale in a while⁰
