Vintage Native American Hopi-Made Coil Plaque with Turtle
On Second Mesa the Hopi weavers specialize in Hopi coil basketry. Hopi coiled baskets are woven by wrapping bundles of plant material with a single piece of plant material usually yucca. The colors are usually limited to white, yellow, green, red, and black. Designs you often find on these beautiful baskets are Katsina, animals, blankets, and geometric designs. This specific design is a turtle, which represents long life. This is a beautiful older basket in excellent condition.
