Handmade Apache Burden Basket by Billy Jean King
$149.95
Celebrate the artistry and heritage of the American Southwest with this Handmade Apache Burden Basket by Billy Jean King, a beautifully crafted example of traditional Apache basketry. Expertly handwoven by noted Apache artisan Billy Jean King, the burden basket is constructed from natural willow and native plant fibers in a tightly woven design accented by rich geometric patterns in warm brown and natural hues. Long leather carrying straps extend from the basket and are fitted with metal cone jingles, adding both visual interest and a traditional decorative element that reflects Apache cultural craftsmanship. Historically used for gathering and transporting food and supplies, burden baskets are among the most recognizable forms of Apache utilitarian art and remain highly prized by collectors today.
