Another super cool basket that I wanted to share with everyone. This one is pretty big and has some nice vibrant designs. The basket appears to be old. I have been posting pics of the baskets I like the most and I love to hear what you know or have to say about them. Thanks!

Measures: 7 1/2" Tall and 12" Wide

Actually, this could very well be Native American. The weave is one used by NA tribes and the material is too. Single rod construction and it could be from Alaska but I am not sure about that on this one. Faded color on the outside from sunlight and vibrant on the inside. I really like the little "dip" in, about halfway down the basket. That is what makes me think about Alaska. Thanks for putting this up!
