[QUOTE="komokwa, post: 1058196, member: 301"]Dear cmbl.....that's not even the same design structure... the drawing on page 195 clearly shows the elongated rectangles lined up on the same row in 2 colors , whereas your baskets design is one color and the squares are staggered . This book , my copy...looks almost mint , as it is one of my least used reference books. Page 11, shows a Haida woman and 'her' basket work....but on page 260 there is a classic stunning photo of Alaskan..( Tlingit ) baskets. The basket items in both photo's are the same Tlingit basket work....no Haida baskets there at all. I know books can have errors in them.....innocent ones for sure, but the one I pointed out is glaring. [ATTACH=full]208874[/ATTACH] At best , your basket may have some minor similarity to the shape of a Panamint bottle neck basket...but that's it...that's all. To further your knowledge of basketry world wide , Taupou's suggestion is the right direction to proceed.[/QUOTE]
