Dream Catcher Earrings
Artist: January Hawk - Lakota
These earrings have been hand-made with beads with thread in the center to make it look like a dream catcher. It has a beaded feather hanging from the center. It measures 1.5 W x 2 H inches on silver french wires.
The catchers moved freely in the air and caught dreams as they floated by. The good dreams would follow the web to the center and run down the feather and onto the sleeping person. The bad dreams, not knowing the way to the center would get hopelessly entangled in the web and perish with the first light of the new day.
Beadwork is an art form expressed and practiced throughout Native American Tribes. Beads of various types have been used for beautification by man since the beginning of time. These have taken many forms, such as seeds, shells, claws, bones, and stones.
