and father's hair and grandmother's hair put inside with buffalo fur

They were traditionally made for a newborn
child that had come into a family. After the umbilical cord fell off - an
umbilical cord holder was made as a container for the umbilical cord. This
stayed with the child the rest of its life. There are no umbilical cord holders
in the ones that we make, but people have bought them for their children and
have had the umbilical cord put in. It becomes a family keep sake
