    Description

    Here is an authentic antique Pima coiled basketry bowl decorated with an antelope motif.  It shows four antelope images inside and out.  The diameter is about 7 3/4" and the rim is about 3 7/8" high. There are 12 or 13 stitches per inch.  I'm not knowledgeable enough to try and accurately date this but it has several signs of considerable age and use and the fine quality and authentic motif do not appear to be typical of something made for sale to tourists.  If I had to guess I would say  certainly pre-1935.
    This is one of several southwestern native pieces dating from the early 1900s into the 1950s I have listed.
    Be sure and check out the other items currently listed from this collection.
    All were purchased some twenty years ago from a Caucasian woman whose parents had inherited them from a Hopi woman they became close with over a long period living and working on the reservation.   I've enjoyed them very much but will soon no longer have the space required to do them justice so am ready to find new caretakers for these wonderful artworks.
