Title: New Apache Quiver and Bowcase
Post by: Peatreg on May 09, 2016, 11:30:12 am

Just got this finished up this past week. Replicated Apache style quiver and bowcase. Commercial leather with red trade wool backed cutouts. The central feature on this quiver, along with the cutouts backed with cloth is a common design element with Apache quivers is stained with yellow pigment paint mixed with hide glue. Bow is Apache styled sinew backed juniper. Arrows are cane with hardwood foreshafts tipped with metal hunting and war points and one small game blunt.
