    I recently inherited a coiled bottleneck basket from my aunt. Pic attached.
    Wondering if anyone can help me with identification? I believe it is a
    polychrome coiled bottleneck basket but not sure. Maybe worthless. My basket is 9" high and about 13" dia/wide. The opening on the top is about 4 1/4" dia. The coils are about 1 centimeter wide. The
    designs have dark purple and orange/rust colored weaves.

      I was thinking it looked tribal of some sort & I have noticed they put it in Native American so I must be picking something up here & there.
