    My parents had a export business back in the 1970's and early 80's. These I found when they passed away. Another one was easy to ID as a Navajo wedding basket but these 4 are a mystery.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

      The two on the left are coiled date palm fiber baskets from Pakistan. The small one on top of the larger one is a open stitched coiled yucca Tohono O'odham (formerly Papago) basket; and the large one is also made from palm fiber, probably from Mexico, but all I can tell you for sure is that it is an import, not Native American.
