    Wondering if these are anything of consideration. Have had for some long time and just re-noticed them and now am curious as to what they might be. Smaller one (with hand in photo) has pattern woven into basket. Larger one has crude dots painted on bottom. Knowing nothing about baskets, they all look alike to me. Would appreciate any knowledge you might share. Thanks. MG

      The larger one is Yanomami, from the Amazon rainforest of Brazil or Venezuela.

      I thought that I had thanked your for that information, but I see it is not here. So please allow me again to say "thanks". I love this site. Now, if I can just identify the other basket!!!!
