The Yakima (more accurately spelled Yakama, referring to the Yakama Nation in Washington state, part of the Columbia Plateau region) is renowned for its intricate beaded artwork, including bags and necklaces. These pieces are traditional Native American beadwork, often featuring glass seed beads sewn onto leather or hide, with designs like florals, animals (e.g., eagles, elk, deer, birds), geometric patterns, or symbolic motifs.
