Well, I have Six Ad-HaTTeRs, Scented Mandella (Shields) sitting in front of me. The package says what is in the bold type above and also says Prairie Grass. I am thinking that the Ad-HaTTeRs, Inc. 'Prairie Grass' is like the product name. The "Scented Mandella (Shield)" is the style. I guess you would have to see the package. (It's not complicated, hope I don't make it sound like it is.) Alright then. They are assorted. And I'd bet that there are many more color schemes than what I have before me. I did see another Mandella Shield that was different than all that I was sent. So I know there must be more. This one I'm holding is Burgandy with a circle wrapped in leather. In the center of the circle there is white fur. (looks like rabbit fur, probably not real) Then there is two short leather strips hanging from the top into the circle with a bead and a feather on each one. There is then 10 strands of leather hanging from the bottom of the circle about 5" long with 2 Burgandy and 2 white beads spaced 2" apart with a feather hanging below the beads. Trust me, they are real nice. Of course they would not be for everyone. But there is more! There is a story on the back of the package. A desert picture on the back, looks like it was taken from somewhere in New Mexico. Real nice packaging and the product is high quality. I have a Aqua-Blue one with blue and white beads, blue leather and 2 small brown,black&white, feathers and about 10 blue feathers. Another with a lot of white and 2 white braided ropes about 2" long and a black bead on each, with black & brown feathers. One with tan leather covering the circle and a Indian Chief in the center painted black. Beads of Tan & Tope also with feathers but these are redish and long and stringy. And still another that is gray leather with a indian symbol in the center and arrows pointing around the circle, it has lite green and white beads and white feathers. Here's a dark blue one with multi colored feathers, of course the circle and I'm not sure what the strings are made of, but they are blue with white in the circle some beads also. The other one I saw was a different shade of green like lite green looked much like the last blue one I described. Bottom line, they all are made high quality materials and craftmanship and look nice. Kinda like a novelty item. I never noticed before, but since I've been in CSMA, I've seen a bunch of Dream Catchers. Various sizes, some with circles over 12" across and strans over 18" long coming down from them. None of which however, were sented. Want to know where the scent comes from? Each has a 1 1/2" disc behind the 'shield'. Smells great! How did I do?<g> More confused now than ever? Oh well, I guess you'll just have to see them. Believe me. As reported before, the Dream Catchers sell the best, By far! Of course Ad-HaTTeRs has Angels, 1/2 Angels, assorted Boots, assorted Hats and I'm not sure what all they have. But there should be one to about everyone's liking. Now, who wants to know more? freeman@wwd.com Happy investing! KZAP
