Authentic Native American Papago basket bowl; stitched with Yucca and devil's claw over bear grass. It measures 6.5 inches across x 2.5” Deep with weaving in good acceptable condition commensurate with age. 1940/50’s. This is from my personal collection. Different tribes used different materials and had distinct basketry traditions, weaving techniques, basket shapes, and characteristic patterns. Southeast Indians such as the Cherokee used rivercane wicker and pine needles and Southwest Indians utilized willow wood and sumac and other tribes used swamp grass, spruce root, birchbark and other materials. Northeast Indian tribes utilized braided sweet grass and ash splints. As tribes became displaced, their basket weaving became more diverse adapting to new materials and traditions of new neighbors in their immediate environment. See pictures.

I have always had a curious nature about humanity’s precedent and have spent most of my life from early childhood into adulthood searching out the treasures and secrets of our past; collecting them; researching them; and on occasion writing about them.When circumstances dictate, I must then pass on my treasures, knowledge, and collections to present generations; not for financial remuneration, but rather to spread our ancestral legacy to our progeny, so that the labors and riches of the past are not lost to the annals of changing times; but continue to future generations. Please note that as the items we sell are original antique or vintage items and heirlooms... most of them will have been used for the purpose that was intended. Therefore they may have signs of wear in keeping with use and age. Any damage will be described with accompanying photographs.
