- Lot Description
Native American, Southwestern United States, Anasazi (Ancestral Puebloan), ca. 1075 to 1250 CE. A lovely stone fleshing tool used to remove skin and hide from animals. The tool has a wide handle, gradually expanding peripheries, and slightly angled blade faces with a smooth edge, all presented with an incredibly smooth surface texture. Fleshers like this example were utilized to gently remove the hide from large animals to keep the whole skin intact and not to tear or puncture the material. Modern Riker box included. Size (flesher): 5.875" L x 2.55" W (14.9 cm x 6.5 cm); (Riker box): 8.25" L x 6.25" W (21 cm x 15.9 cm)
