    Description

    Hopi
    second mesa coiled basket - plaque or shallow bowl, with
    whirling wind
    design. Woven in red, black, and yellow against an earth-tone background, the plaque measures
    15
    inches in diameter, 1 1/2 inches height to top of rim.  There are small spots of yucca wrap loss, with some
    fading of color on the front side
    (see pictures).  Does not have a hanging loop and not obvious that it ever had one - given the basket depth, may have served some other purpose than decorative.  Dates to early 1900s.
    Provenance
    : From the estate of the Benedictine Sisters; collected by the Benedictine Sisters (Mt. Angel, OR) in the 1930s while doing missionary work among Native Americans in the southwest.
