Miniature Mohawk Splint Pack Basket, c. Early 20th Century woman farmer The color of the wood

The color of the wood is closest to that in the first photo--a soft dark brown

A little paint loss around the edges

plus a decorative border of flowers and vines and corresponding carved edge

Each "page" is a double layer

with hand-painted rather than lithographed color

Miniature Mohawk Splint Pack Basket, c. Early 20th Century woman farmer The color of the woodThis isn't in perfect condition but I found it way too sweet to leave behind; a miniature woven splint pack basket, feeling like a salesman sample though perhaps simply made for the tourist market. I found a near identical one of the same scale in the collection of the Coe Center in Santa Fe, identified as Mohawk, early 20th century, and I trust that is right. 4 5 16" t x 4 5 16" w x 2 1 2" d not including straps. Photos document it from every view,
