Antique Pima Basket

Description

Very large antique handwoven Pima Indian basket, woven c1900-1920. This basket with its large size deep bowl shape and being woven of 2/3 devils claw was a "harvest", or "wine making" basket. Its function was to harvest saguaro or prickly pear fruit to make wine for a dance, ceremony or fiesta. The basket design is a stair step or modified Fret design. The basket is in good overall condition for its age and the willow background has an even color tan patina. Please study the photos for condition, there are some tiny cactus fruit drop stains on the back but we have left them and not tried to clean them off.
Size 18 3/4" x 5.5"
