Hupa basket, California, in large size and in beautiful condition, with open gallery edge at top, a woven foot that enables it to sit flat, the sides decorated with zig zag designs in cream color with dark edge on bottom band. Measures 10 7/8" on one side, 10 1/8" on the other and is roughly 4 3/4" high (a bit higher on one side than the other). The condition is remarkable, very little wear, no fading or losses, has been well cared for. As it is vintage or antique, may have minor signs of usage, so is sold as is. From the Klamath River of Northwest California, the tribes of this area include the Karok, Yurok, Tololya and Wiyot, and crafted baskets and hats of hazel, pine root, squaw grass, and fern. Very large size, with the fine open gallery section at the top, this basket is a beautiful example of Native American basketry. Please see all photos for details and email any questions. Shipping via USPS or Fedex with tracking and insurance. Shipping delays may occur.
