    Description

    Fine Native American Fully Imbricated Basket 4 Human Figures by Elsie Thomas.
    I have a pretty good collection of Klickitat baskets by Nettie Kuneki Jackson and Elsie Thomas.
    I purchased several Elsie Thomas baskets from a dealer who knew and collected baskets by Elsie Thomas.
    The price tag from 12 ~ 15 years ago is still on the basket.
    The baskets are in good shape overall with wear and basket is tilting to one side. Please see photos as part of description.
    Feel free to ask me any questions and I will gladly answer any questions you might have.
    Thank you,

    Elsie Thomas B1910 ~ 2007 was regarded as best Klickitat basket maker/weaver of her time.
    She is also mother in law to another master weaver Nettie Kuneki Jackson.
