American Indian baskets are some of the finest and most valuable in the world. Baskets are perhaps one of the greatest visual expressions of American Indian culture. Each Indian tribe has basket weaving styles and designs that are characteristic to that tribe. Over the years as basket-weaving styles developed, so did the degree of craftsmanship that is so clearly exhibited in the American Indian baskets of the last several decades. The American Indian ability to visualize the whole basket as they are weaving it and the patience to bring it to completion, certainly lends to results of superior craftsmanship.
