A fine example of an antique early 20th Century African (presumably Zulu) herb gathering basket with lid. A fantastic specimen with a tight woven coile forming an ovoid shape. A coiled lid fits snug into the basket. The basket is then further woven together with leather bands. This is a genuine antique artifact as opposed to the modern and mass produced Zulu herb gather baskets you see on the Internet. A wonderful find brimming with history!
