A very nice classic Apache basket bowl - about 4" deep, about 12.5" diameter. Willow rods and stitching, and devil's claw for the black, I believe. One broken stitch shown. Strong and in good shape.
Note: Picture 5 shows a break in the rim. I did not notice it when initially listing it, as it is not noticeable unless it is held by the edge, putting some torque on it. It disappears when flat, fitting perfectly. I intend to glue it toget...her unless somebody protests. Last 3 pictures added to show crack untouched, with torque to open it, back to invisible.
