This beautiful coiled basket was woven so skillfully that it is waterproof. The exact artist is not known for sure but its looks to be work of Pacida Wallace of the Lilwat Nation made between 1900 and 1950. Such a marvel.
Coiled basket
Grass, yucca leaves, vegetable dyes
Hopi manufacture, Northern Arizona, late 19th to early 20th century

Starting a new coiled basket and I am loving these beachy colors already. I am using 3/8 inch cotton filler cord, Hometown yarn in the color
