    This basket is about 10" tall and that is all I know about it. It looks like it made of pine straw but I am not sure. There was price tag of $98 on it but not mention of where it from. Could someone please help me with info about this basket, use, age, value, region, purpose, etc. Thanks for all the help and your comments are appreciated.

      It is made of Pine needles. This is most likely made in the Great Lakes region. Seminole, Kosati or Coushatta tribes but others in the region made them too. Weave is called the "Wheat Stitch".
