The superb graphics on this rectangular basket with handles makes this an unusual example of this form of basketry. The basket has an immediate visual impact. The colors are strong, but not bright, and give the feeling of natural dyes rather than aniline dyed colors. The basket is evenly woven in native materials and the rim and lower part of the handles are wrapped in raffia.
The basket was woven in the first half of the 19th Century. height to rim 8 in., length 11 ¾ in., width 4 ½ in. $250
