    I took these pictures in different light. Just another from my mother's collection. The last photo is in bright light. Just amazing condition. Is this from Arizona?

      It may have been purchased in Arizona, but wasn't made there. This isn't Native American. The construction technique, where the coils are joined by a wrapped stitch that leaves a space between the coils, is not used by any Native American tribal basket makers. It's most often found in Mexican baskets, and in baskets from some of the South Pacific Island countries. The pinkish color could probably help narrow down where it was made.
