I wanted to share some of my Native Baskets that I have. I don't know much about them because they were inherited from an estate. I would love to hear what you guys have to say and I am going to try and post some more pictures later on. Thanks!
A very nice looking collection from the northwest US up the coast to Alaska with a few NE and a south eastern basket. Individual pics would help identify for you, there seems to be lots of basket knowledge here.

WOW
You have Tlingit, Makah, Tsimshian, Choctaw, Mohawk and a couple that may be Californian mission. PLEASE take individual shots here. Just that Tlingit rattletop basket is worth thousands. I cannot wait to see all these individually!
Hey, I am in the process of taking pictures of the collection, this is only a few of hundreds of baskets I received from my father's estate. We lived in a Alaska when I was young and my father began collecting in New England. I am going to be posting some individual pictures hopefully this week and I look forward to any insight you may have about the baskets. These things are some difficult to identify, aside from the few pieces that have price tags still on them with the type of basket. Thanks for the comments!!
I cannot wait, I have been waiting for you to come back..! I collect Alaskan Native American basketry and I help other people identify baskets. I would be happy to help you...if you want.
You have some really amazing work there, and if the others you have look like these do, you have a basket goldmine for real.
