Item # 549H- Vintage Early 1900's River Cane Splint Basket
Vintage Early 1900's River Cane Splint Basket
Beautiful older late 1800's to early 1900's eastern native made splint basket! The basket is American Indian made using natural river cane. We obtained it from a private estate auction and it comes from the estate of Bob Davis, a renown collector from Oklahoma City, OK. It’s in great condition with no broken or chipped cane. The basket measures approximately 4 ½” tall by 6 ½” wide across the opening. It weighs 76.5 grams (2.70 ounces). I would say tribal affiliation would connect the basket to either Cherokee or Chippewa, but I can't be certain. $169.95
