- Lot Description
Native American, Western United States, California, Pomo culture, ca. 1920s CE. A fine hand coiled canoe-shaped basket with feathers, hand-made basket decorated with feathers, the body coiled and twined from regional plants - sedge grass, fern root, willow, and/or bracken. The quail topknot feathers are evenly spaced around the exterior - quail only have a few topknot feathers to spare, making this a special ornamental material! The large elliptical and ornate baskets were usually given as gifts perhaps during a wedding or other special event, and to redistribute wealth. This basket was collected by Josephine Metson Lindeberg (1874-1965), wife to Jafet Lindeberg, gold prospector and co-founder of the city of Nome, Alaska. After striking it rich in gold mining, the Lindebergs settled in California in 1905, amassing a large collection of Native artifacts and art. Size: 14" L x 11" W x 5" H (35.6 cm x 27.9 cm x 12.7 cm)
This basket was purportedly purchased from the August 1924 edition of the "California Indian Herald: Volume 2, Number 8," or possibly at an event advertised in this issue. The original copy of this magazine is included with this piece.
