This figural Apache basket is highly desirable. Figures are always desirable, and this basket has 4 dancers, two with a rattles in their hands. Condition also matters a lot. The yucca and devil’s claw materials have retained their color and the willow has developed a beautiful patina. This basket came out of a private NY collection.
