DescriptionRound pieces of leather with a zig-zag pattern along one of the long sides with the other three sides being cut cleanly. Two holes are punches in each of the short sides so that the wristlet can be tied together with rawhide laces. The wristlets are white in color with some traces of red pigment on one end.
