A Kaleidoscope of Color:
Indian Trade Blankets
Hanolchadi pattern, ca. 1920. Buell Manufacturing Company, St. Joseph, Missouri.




The first two of these blankets are recently-made reproductions of Aztec and Ojibwa Buell Blankets from Chihuly’s collection. The tribute blankets were made by Pendleton Woolen Mills as part of a series which also included a reproduction Winnebago blanket—the same style (but not color) as the St. Joseph Museums, Inc. blanket.
