Cobertor de botões

Um cobertor de botões contemporâneo feito por Joshua Sherurcij, 2008

Um cobertor de botões é uma coberta de lã adornada com botões de madrepérola. Foram criados por tribos da Costa Noroeste, e são usados para fins cerimoniais.[1][2]

De modo similar a brasões de armas exibem os animais totem do clã de seus portadores, e sinalizam o seu status.[3]

As cobertas são usadas como capas e presentes em danças cerimoniais e potlatches.[2][4]

Essas vestes são declarações poderosas de identidade e, ao vesti-las, as pessoas se tornam em um sentido real o que vestem.[5]

As cobertas foram a princípio adquiridos dos comerciantes da Hudson's Bay Company em meados do século XIX.[6][7] Os cobertores comerciais eram tipicamente azuis escuros e decorados com botões feitos de conchas de abalone ou dentalium .[8] A crista central normalmente retratava um símbolo da herança familiar do usuário.[9]

As mantas costumam ter uma borda vermelha nas bordas superior e lateral. Uma figura de crista central é criada a partir dos botões e apliques de flanela vermelha. Cobertores de botão são usados sobre os ombros e o design do brasão fica nas costas do usuário.[10]

Os cobertores não são pendurados nas paredes, exceto em funerais ou perto dos túmulos dos chefes.[10]

A artista haida Florence Davidson (1896–1993) era conhecida por seus cobertores de botões.

Em 2015, a estudante de direito Christina Gray, da nação Lax Kw'alaams Tsimshian, obteve formalmente o direito de usar um cobertor de botões e um chapéu de cedro com suas vestes de advogada durante a cerimônia em que se bacharelou em Ontário. Ela citou o uso do cobertor de botões como um símbolo das tradições legais de sua nação.[11]
