Beautiful HAND WOVEN Southwest Design Pattern Basket NEXT DAY SHIPPING! Fantastic Basket 12" by 1 1/4" deep - GORGEOUS DESIGN! Navajo Wedding Basket Design This design is a late 19th century basket design. These baskets are used to hold sacred corn meal during wedding ceremonies. The opening in the middle circle to the outside is the "Shipapu", the path or means of communication to the ancestral worlds of the Navajo. The opening should always point to the east. The colors in this basket are the old style colors of the early baskets. Beautiful! WOW! It's so exciting! We have been collecting baskets for 30 years and these are some of the nicest baskets we have seen for a great price. We went to another Native American/ Southwest auction of a Southwest Art Decor store where there were many baskets and rugs. As we always do, we bought lots to pass on to Southwest art lovers. Some of these don't have any tags so don't know where they are all from or who they are made by. This one is just beautiful with the colors of Brown and bronze! Everyone will be jealous when you display this beauty in your home or office! The light browns and rusts in this basket are outstanding are wonderful! They are all handwoven!
