Authentic leather fringed jacket from Tlingit Clan of the Raven-Otter-Whale-Frog House in Klukwan (bead work artistry featured in the Smithsonian). Was given to the owner directly from a Native American Medicine Man named Daniel George Katzeek, son of Tlingit leader David Katzeek (1942- 2020, Tlingit: King̱eestí) was an Tlingit educator, leader of the Shangukeidí clan, and the first president of Sealaska Heritage Institute. A singer and dancer, he helped found the Alaskan festival Celebration in the 1980s. He taught Tlingit language and culture at the Juneau School District and the University of Alaska Southeast. 

An authentic Tlingit leather fringed jacket associated with the Raven-Otter-Whale-Frog House in Klukwan, Alaska, represents significant, high-value Indigenous artistry. Such items, often featuring meticulous beadwork, are prized, with similar historical Tlingit pieces from the region being featured in major collections like the Smithsonian Institution.

Appears to be an equivalent of a men's small jacket.

Condition

This authentic jacket is vintage and has been heavily worn. There are tears in the leather, stains, etc. The beadwork is still almost completely intact and preserved. See photos for more condition details.
