Big Medicine Blanket

Product Information

The Pendleton Big Medicine Blanket tells a powerful story, rooted in Native American prophecy and symbolism. It draws inspiration from the rare white bison, "Big Medicine," born in 1933, a revered symbol of new beginnings and wholeness for humanity and the earth. The blanket's design beautifully incorporates seven bison, representing the seven directions, alongside prayer pipes for communication and four hands within a circle, symbolizing diverse peoples coming together for a fresh start.

Crafted with deep brown and green hues that evoke the natural beauty of Mother Earth, this is more than just a blanket—it's a piece of art with cultural significance. Its robe size makes it ideal for ceremonial use, as a comfortable wrap, or as an impactful decorative throw. Woven in Pendleton's American mills, this blanket offers enduring warmth and a soft, napped finish.
