Tohono O' Odham Handwoven Small Indian Basket MZ-0004
Tohono O' Odham Handwoven Small Indian Basket MZ-0004
This is an authentic Handwoven Tohono O' Odham basket. American Indian art consists of two parts. The warp (or inner coil) is made of beargrass. The weft (or design) is harvested either from the soap tree yucca cactus (green and white) or the roots of the banana yucca cactus (red). All the colors occur naturally no dyes are utilized.
The Papago Indians, now called Tohono O'Odham (The People of the Desert), inhabit over 50 villages within their beautiful reservation in Southern Arizona. Here they still gather the materials for their baskets as their ancestors did.
