| Pomo Indian gift baskets decorated with shells and feathers. The largest one shown is 10-3/8". From California, 1890. Because of the beautiful materials from which they are made, these baskets were featured in the "Splendors of Nature" exhibit at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History. |
