Plateau Beaded Bags are iconic flat, hand-beaded purses or pouches created by Native American women from the Columbia Plateau region (primarily tribes like the Nez Perce, Yakama, Umatilla, Cayuse, Walla Walla, and others in what is now eastern Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and western Montana).

 

These bags evolved in the mid-19th century as a distinctive art form, blending traditional weaving practices with new trade goods.
