A striking and collectible vintage Pendleton "Friendship" saddle blanket, showcasing a vibrant geometric pattern and rich, eye-catching color palette. Marked with the coveted "Beaver State" label – reserved for Pendleton's in-line classic Trade Blankets and shawls.

Based on the label style, this blanket was likely manufactured between the 1950s and 1970s. This unique piece is in excellent condition and represents a superb example of Pendleton's quality craftsmanship, making it a significant piece of Native American and textile history. This is a warm reminder of a shared heritage. Excellent condition.
