Bag measures 5.75 by 5.75 inches, the strap is 50 inches long. There are 137 buttons total. This is from Dr. Mark Sublette's personal collection. He acquired it from the Hilda Street collection of Taos Inn, New Mexico. On exhibit at the Arizona State Museum Jewelry Show "Set in Stone" from December 14, 2007 to February 20, 2010. Gems, minerals, copper, and even sea shells and other exotic goods have been carried across the Southwest along well-established and well-worn routes for more than 2000 years. "Set in Stone" brought this long history to light, featuring 800 objects and audio-visual displays. With Native jewelry and mining tools from across the span of time, and with mineral samples, photographs, and recordings, the viewer was transported on a journey of deep historical resonance along routes that trace how the quest for mineral wealth has shaped the identity of the Southwest. Designed to complement and coincide with the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show, "Set in Stone" gives context and perspective to our communities annual gathering.
