High bid $67.00

Status: Sold

Choctaw Indian hand crafted basket. "Heart" shaped basket often confused with the Bull Nose or Cow Nose basket (those do not have pointed ends) Made of rivercane and has a twisted cane handle tied on each end. Basket is approx 11"H x 13.5"W without handle. This basket has a darker weave woven into the natural rivercane, as well as dyed weave at the top. This one has started to darken from age. The "point" lokks "loose" but I assure you it is not. This is a Nice tightly woven older Choctaw basket. ~Az
