Take a look at this Antique Tewa Blanket that was my Great Grandmothers. It was purchased from the Tewa Tribe of Native Americans in Norther New Mexico in the 1800's (family places it in the family around 1885-1895). It was passed down to me and I made a special cedar shadow box. the box is about 38" X 18" X 4" deep. There is a wood dowel wrapped in Teflon to keep the natural wool fibers away from the acidic wood it hangs on. It has a UV protective coating on the Plexiglas to keep the blanket from fading.
