Large Plate Basket | Tohono O'Odham

9" round authentic Tohono O'Odham plate basket.

This authentic piece of American Indian art consists of two parts: the warp (or inner coil) is made of beargrass; the weft (or design) is harvested either from soaptree yucca cactus (green and white), the pod of devil's claw (black), or the roots of the banana yucca cactus (red).  All of the colors occur naturally; no dyes are utilized.
