Rare California Pit River Achumawi Indian Gambling Tray Native American Basket
Offered is a rare piece. This is a large 15 Northern California Pit River Achumawi Gambling Tray. The previous owners had a tag attached that dated it to 1890s and provided the reference to the American Indian Basketry of Northern California book by the Riverside Museum Press to a similar basket. A flexible basket, it is in excellent condition. No breaks or damage that I can find. A few pinhole gaps in weaving. A few rough areas, but this appears to be as made. I’ve provided some options. Sometimes UPS is the cheapest way to send larger pieces. A note: We’re all healthy here and are isolated and washing hands regularly. If you’re worried just leave your packages in a garage or porch area for a few days before opening. Thanks and be well. Most of the items we sell come from our personal collection gathered over the years from our travels, from Native powwows and craft stores, antique shops, auctions and estate sales. Now that our kids are in college and beyond, we are letting some items go so others can enjoy them. Then I’ll send you a combined invoice. Sorry for the expense, but I’ve had items lost overseas when mailing first class and don’t want to take the risk of losing items. I pack carefully and try to reuse materials to save on environmental impact. I often double-box items with smaller gift boxes collected from various thrift stores. I reuse all that I receive and hope you will make use of the ones that come in your packages.
