Huge favor; could someone help me identify a basket?

Filed under: Academic,Mundane Or Sublime,Pop Culture,Tech — admin @ 12:32 pm

Weavers, Any idea where this basket might be from?

Please help me identify him/her if you can. OK? I’m finding out that it *might* be ash splint or it might be bamboo. And I’m told so far that if it’s North America it might be Cherokee, but I’m also hearing it might be northern New England.

Some are saying the star might be Apache, and others are saying it’s 6 pointed so must be jewish. I’ve tried comparing it with pictures from all over the world but am having no real luck so far.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks a gazillion,
marco

PS: While searching so much; I found a neat “basket” version of the Concentration game, if anyone’s interested; I found it VERY fun!
