Makah Northwest Coast Native Antique Lidded Basket one of a kind bowl but it seems to meI've fallen in love with Makah and Nuu chah nulth (Nootka) baskets, so finely woven of bear grass and cedar bark and this is a lovely example in great condition. Based on the plaited structure of the bottom of the basket and incorporation of raffia as the weft, I am fairly certain this piece dates from sometime between 1890s 1930. This one features naturally dyed red, green and dark blue banded patterning, and three small green diamonds at the center
