|
Up for auction is a beautifully woven and quite old Navajo Indian wedding basket. Just look at this nice detailing - the center of the basket features ten woven points with a red band open on one side. It also has a definite depth and a lovely round shape. And be sure to check out the traditional braided rim and trade cloth start at the center of the basket. I think this basket was used in a ceremony, although it may just be old and dusty. These tourist items have long been popular with visitors to the Southwest, and this is a very appealing one. It would look awesome displayed with other Southwest Native American baskets.
The basket is a nice showy size, measuring just under 12" across and with a definite depth to it, about 2" deep. It is in just beautiful condition. Close examination reveals a couple of missing narrow wraps, also the colors have faded. But there is no rim damage, separated coils, or any serious flaws at all. This is a lovely example of innovative Native American weaving and will make a beautiful addition to someone's collection of vintage Southwest Indian baskets.
