Description
Plaited Yucca Hopi Ring Basket. The diagonal-twill plaiting creates concentric diamond patterns extending from the center to the outside ring. The ring at the rim is wrapped and tied with the yucca leaves from the weave that are frayed and tied on either side around the ring, leaving an excess frayed fringe. One side is shorter than the other.
