    I don't know anything about this basket, other than it looks to be Native American. I bought it at an antique mall in Ohio. It measures about 9" tall and about 7" across. Any help identifying the origin would be appreciated.

      This may be Indian, but not N. American. I live in St. Maarten & we see this type often. Usually Peru, Equador,Bolivia etc.. If you learn the style of patterns, you will know where they are made.
