$195.00

This basket is in excellent vintage condition. It displays a wonderful, authentic golden-honey patina earned over decades of natural aging. The weave remains structurally tight and firm. The lid fits properly and there is minimal wear as shown in photos. Decorated with elegant, bold geometric stepped/zigzag bands. The deep dark-brown/black patterns are consistent with the natural coloring of harvested devil’s claw pods.
This piece showcases exceptional artistry and traditional craftsmanship, heavily reflecting the classic style, form, and material choices of Tohono O'odham (Papago) or Akimel O'odham (Pima) weavers of southern Arizona.
