By Marjorie Richards


You may be thinking of the unique yet affordable present you can present to your loved ones during their wedding, birthday party, college graduation, or Christmas time, the right answer is the Native American Gifts. It is very easy to get your hands on a very adorable and unforgettable item for a very reasonable price. Since the items come in a very wide collection and in all forms of items there is always something that is bound to impress them.

The gifts that trace their roots to Native Americans are always amazing. In fact, most visitors to the U. S usually grab the opportunity to buy something and carry it home to remember their time in the U. S. In the same way, you can buy something for those you are visiting and leave a lasting impression to them.

It does not matter even if the person you are presenting the gift to a music lover; there are several items for them. In fact, an authentic Indian drum or flute that is handmade is a perfect gift for such people. In addition to this, you can simply go for the different genres of folk songs and traditional dance videos.

Most Indian tribes are known to have unique artifacts which are used as presents in different occasions. Their strong love for songs and music in general also go unnoticed. For music lovers, it is easy to appreciate the compilation of different genres of such tribal music and dance. The most common sounds are the folk sounds, blues, hip hop, and even rock. Other than the music itself, you may also go an authentic Indian drum or flute.

The craft collection available consists of different unique styles of tribal pottery as well as jewelry. The collectors of the tribal Indian antiques and artifacts are ready to present you with authentic Native American weapons such as arrowheads among others. These are available at reasonable prices as weapons are a common feature with these tribes.

The other great ideas with the traditional Indian gifts are the hand-woven crafts made by their women. The quilted blanket and woven rugs, in particular, are very popular, attracting buyers from the Europe and other continents. These items are still made on looms and many gorgeous and unique designs are easily available.

The Kachina dolls that originated from the Hopi Indian tribe is also a popular gift that was able to spread to several other tribes. The dolls were commonly used to teach children and tell stories. They also played a role as decorative items and are still available today.

Whether it is the prayer blankets, the baskets, jewelry, sculptures, art prints, and artifacts among others, they come with the style and the spirit of the original designs. The authentic ones were made from the natural materials such as wood, reeds and fur for prayer blankets, silver and turquoise for jewelry, natural fibers and beads for clothing items and natural dye from fruits and vegetable for prints. The sculptures were made from carved rocks, ivory, and animal bones. There are many vendors on the internet, and this makes the purchasing much easier. However, you need the certificate of authenticity to be sure that the item you have bought was actually made in the Native American Indian way.
