Large Southwestern Lidded Basket 17" (169bc99)

This is a southwest Indian style hand woven basket with matching lid.

The Indian technique of basket making using the coil method is generations old. Handed down from each passing generation the art is preserved. The Hopi pueblo Indians were famous for baskets woven in this fashion that were so tight that they could hold water.

Native American baskets are popular for southwestern decorating as well as western decor. These traditional baskets are made by hand, artfully woven to form unique patterns. Handwoven baskets are great for cabin, lodge or log home or for your special rustic or Native American room.

Measures approximately 16.75" wide, 17" tall. Actual basket is shown.
