Alaska Native Inuit or Eskimo moccasins, circa 1930's. Stitched sealskin with fur ruff around the opening. Hand-beaded top on camel-color background, all beads are intact and tightly woven. Sole is clean and unmarked, moccasins were never worn. These were purchased by my great-uncle, a merchant marine, on a sea voyage to Alaska in the 1930s. Size is a woman's 7. From toe point to heel back, the measurement is 10 inches, at widest place across top of moccasin is 4 inches. An authentic, vintage collectible that could be used
