Pendleton Celebrate the Horse Blanket

A brave warrior astride a swift steed thunders across the plain. Similar vivid images were painted on buffalo hides by Plains Indians in the 1800s. Our Celebrate the Horse blanket is based on a design from the Blackfoot tribe, expert horsemen who called the animal elk-horse for its great size. The arrival of the horse, brought to the Americas by 16th Century Spanish Conquistadors, forever changed the culture of Native Americans, encouraging migration, trading, herding and hunting. 82% pure virgin wool/ 18% cotton. Made in the USA! Dry clean only.
