Native American California Maidu Indian Basket
A large and early California Maidu Native American basket with linked bird designs.

Some mustiness lingers from an early collector's cleaning of accumulated dirt from the basket, but it is intact and otherwise in excellent condition for its age. Its refinement and size makes it exceptional.
Ex. Private collection, Palos Verdes.
Diameter: 50 cm // 19.75 in
