Part of Spring Super Auction Native American Baskets, Meaders Pottery and Tons More! part 1!!! (timed auction by K and B Auction)
High bid $90.00
Status: Sold
This Older hand crafted Choctaw Indian basket is one of the largest I've seen so far! Woven in a "Heart" shape. Not to be confused with the Bull or Cow Nose baskets (those do not have pointed ends) The end of this one does have some broken weave to form a "hole" for the point. Entirely made of rivercane and has a twisted cane handle woven from each end. Basket is approx 13.5"H x 20"W without handle. The basket has naturally dyed weave colors, and a few small breaks in the weaving, mostly near the bottom. Older Choctaw basket has a nice large opening on the top. Basket is still in good condition for age and size! ~Az
