- Lot Description
**Originally Listed At $1500**
Native American, Southwestern United States, Apache people, ca. early 20th century CE. A sizable water basket formed from tightly woven wicker strands and covered in sticky pitch to fill the innumerable gaps between the strands and halt any leakage of the liquid contained within. The flat-bottomed vessel exhibits a compressed form with a bulging central carination and a sloped shoulder that tapers to form the broad neck and flared rim. Three metal cups have handles knotted with strips of either leather or colorful cloth that are suspended from the basket neck via a thick strip of red fabric. Traces of natural red, brown, and grey earthen hues are visible across the exterior and cavernous interior. Size: 19.7" Diameter x 19.625" H (50 cm x 49.8 cm).
Provenance: private Glorieta, New Mexico, USA collection; ex-Packrat’s Den Antiques, Yuma, Arizona, USA; ex-private Fort McDowell, New Mexico, USA collection
