[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9612793, member: 2844"]Love your basket, Laura. It was probably made on Lombok, Indonesia. If your basket was made by a Sasak, one of the original people of Lombok, it would be considered tribal in the West. If it was made by one of the Lombok Balinese, it is not tribal. As far as I know, these baskets are made by the Sasak. 'Tribal' is a Western term btw. There is no equivalent in Indonesian, because that way of categorizing never used to be part of their way of thinking. More recently they have started to use the English term to accomodate to Westerners.[/QUOTE]
