[QUOTE="komokwa, post: 9413498, member: 301"]Living where I do I should be far more attuned to Makah basketry. Possibly, but not necessarily !! An old pal of mine , born and bred in Vancouver , never owned a piece of native art, but was around it all his life. It never interested him. Add that to the market for these baskets today is stranger than ever.... I've seen nice ones go for 4 figures.....and similar ones go for $ 300.... good ones get passed up , and average ones get bought... & less and less of the larger older ones on the market..[/QUOTE]
