    We purchased these 3 baskets from an estate sale and we were told they are Native American.
    Small round basket with lid is 5" in diameter.
    Small oval basket with lid is 9" x 6 1/2 ".
    Large oval basket is 17" x 10".
    Any thoughts on their origin? Thanks all!!

      Sorry, but they are not Native American. The lidded one with the red and green paint is Chinese. The other lidded one is African, from Ethiopia, and the large oval basket is Mexican, from the Toluca Valley.
