Experience the beauty and symbolism of our Buffalo Nation Pendleton Wool Blanket as four majestic buffalo come to life in vibrant shades of Red, Yellow, White, and Black. Admire the intricate details of the medicine wheel and feel the power of the sacred Four Directions. Inspired by the Lakota people's deep respect for Pte, the bison, this blanket pays homage to the important role of "The Buffalo People" in their culture.
In this design, artist Jim Yellowhawk embraces Mitakuye Oyasin (“We are all related”), a Lakota belief that all living creatures are family, and can live in harmony and peace.
