Vintage Genuine 16" NAVAJO Wedding basket - display well!

Description

Lovely vintage genuine handwoven traditional Navajo Wedding basket, Native American Indian basket classics!
about 15.5-16" diameter.  This one is a bit different in that it seems to have a grass bundle foundation, but has the split sumac wraps.   This might have been made by a weaver that was perhaps Paiute or Hopi, and the intermixing of their traditions or styles is not unusual, and sometimes other Native American Indian tribes still the Navajo wedding baskets for ceremonies, etc. But this is not an imported knock off as you can tell when you look closely at the materials.  It does have fading which is typical of these Navajo wedding baskets with age.
Traditional 12 points (black mountains).This one looks like it might have been used in ceremony or other- has slightly darkened center as pictures show.
Nice patina.
Sold as is, maybe only a few scattered broken stitches or few spots as I've tried to show in pictures, no returns, but correspondingly modest opening bid!
