Basket Date Unknown

This anonymous, intricately woven basket, created by an unknown artist, is currently held at the Minneapolis Institute of Art. Its unique pattern of brown and tan geometric designs is executed in a tightly woven, coil technique, creating a beautifully crafted and functional piece. The basket’s size and design suggest it was likely used in everyday life, potentially for storing food or personal items. While its precise origin and date are unknown, the basket offers a fascinating glimpse into the craftsmanship and traditions of its creators.
