Made by Navajo and Paiute weavers up in the Four Corners area of Arizona in the old traditional style, to be used as a canteen. To create a design, the weaver dyed some wefts turquoise blue which appear darker and green creating a peaked triangular pattern. This is very unusual!

This neat old basket was purchased new in 1966 at the Northern Arizona Museum Navajo Show of 1966.

Standing 9" tall and 7 1/2" across, the condition is very good, some pitch loss on the bottom.

Buyer pays $15.00 for shipping.
